What is a Boat Lift and Why Do You Need One?

A boat lift is a device that can lift your boat into and out of the water. When you aren’t using your boat, you’ll use your boat lift to keep your boat “high and dry,” so to speak. That’s a good thing!

By doing so, you ensure that your boat enjoys a longer lifespan! 

Here are three reasons why you should consider installing a lift into your boat house.

#1) Protect Your Boat

Boat lifts protect your boat from a variety of different types of damage.

Keeping your boat dry when it’s not in use means gaining protection from algae or rust. Keeping your boat out of the water protects it from wave damage and debris during harsh storms—an important feature in a state where severe weather is the norm.

It even helps you protect your paint job from water stains. 

#2) Enjoy Superior Convenience

A boat lift lets you access your boat and get it out onto the water fast. You won’t have to launch it or retrieve it. You can just lower the boat, get in, and go.

You also enjoy superior convenience when you need to clean or maintain your boat. You can reach every part of the boat with ease. You’ll be able to spot damage or problems right away, which means you can address them before they become safety hazards.

This added convenience is one reason why adding a boat lift can help you increase property values. 

#3) Security

Boat lifts can be outfitted with locks and alarms, which can reduce the risk of theft. They also prevent your boat from drifting away during severe weather events.

Chances are you invested a lot of money into your boat. It makes sense to outfit your boathouse with a piece of equipment that will ensure your boat remains safe and sound no matter what.
