Floating
Boat Lifts are an ideal complement to a floating dock. Floating
boat lifts were originally designed to meet the needs of
boaters in the inland reservoirs of the south central and
south eastern United States, but they are a good choice
anywhere your shoreline is marked by deep water or water
that fluctuates more than a few feet during the course of
a boating season. While floating boat lifts are a natural
fit with floating docks, they may also be attached to standing
docks or seawalls. To use a floating boat lift, you must
generally have a minimum of four to five feet of water in
order to allow the tanks to submerge and the boat to enter
the lift.
How they work
Floating boat lifts use a set of tanks, which raise the
boat when they are filled with air, and lower the boat when
the air is released. These lifts are attached to the dock,
and are typically used year round.

Engineered for use in U-Shaped floating dock systems, deep
water or shallow, and fixed pier applications, Galva-Lift
prevents your boat or PWC from accumulating algae and plant
growth. With GalvaLift, you can preserve your watercraft's
finish, decrease fuel consumption, protect out drives, and
enhance the overall appearance and value of your investment.
Available with High Density Polyethylene tanks for the
maximum life and benefit of any boatlift available, the
GalvaLift may be stock-adapted to virtually any type of
watercraft.
Benefits of the High Density
Polyethylene Tanks
- ¾" wall thickness making the tank virtually "bulletproof"
- Polyethylene tanks actually retain
some buoyancy in the down position which makes them
less stressful on the dock and lift system
- Lifetime warranty on Polyethylene
tanks to the original purchaser of the lift
- Special process used to weld the end
caps into the tanks ensures the strongest weld in
the industry today
- Impervious to saltwater
The original GalvaLifts are also available in hot-dipped
zinc galvanized tanks.
A wide range of models are available to accommodate your
specific mooring situation.
Control Units are deck mounted and equipped with heavy-duty
blower motor, control valves, 12' cord, standard three-conductor
plug, and ground fault circuit interrupter. All control
units operate on 120 V/120 amp home current.
GalvaLifts are newly configured for two PWC Styles: 4500,
6500, and 8500 capacities in the runabout lifts for floating
or side mooring applications; and 10,000 - 27,000-lb. capacity
for larger cruisers.
Choosing the right lift for your application is key to
maximizing the protection of your boat or PWC. Consult with
your St. Lawrence Docks specialist to pinpoint necessary
specifications.
