Launch Or Haul Boats with Stability and Efficiency

Boat Lift travel lifts provide the maximum in security and reliability for the largest shipyard to the smallest mom and pop marina.

Machines are equipped with 4-wheel independent steering that allows for perfect alignment of wheels under all conditions. 90° steering also ensures excellent maneuverability, allowing for flawless functionality even in very confined spaces. Controlled by motorized slewing bearings, this enclosed steering system minimizes exposure to the harsh marine environment for years of trouble-free operation.

Each travel lift is also equipped with a weighing system installed directly on blocks via load cells. This serves two purposes: to limit the load beyond the admitted capacity (three operational thresholds) and to control aft and

forward weight through the display on the remote control to receive clear and immediate feedback. For added safety, in an emergency situation the machine can also be operated by hydraulic valves.

Boat Lift travel lifts are also equipped with a translation system that will automatically adjust the running and braking speed during sometimes risky maneuvers and/or unexpected movement of the machine.

Furthermore, US Hoists and Boat Lift understand the need to be operational at all times. That’s why we offer fast, professional technical assistance. In the case of a rare malfunction, we can connect to your machine via the internet to troubleshoot, and in many cases, fix most problems while talking directly to you over the phone.
