Frequently Asked Questions.

Your Lake Service Questions, Answered.

How do I determine the right hoist size for my boat?

Start with the dry weight of your boat and add the weight of fuel, gear, and passengers to ensure you select a hoist that can handle the full load.

Duralift hoists feature a steel frame cantilever design, while ShoreStation hoists are aluminum frame vertical lifts. Both offer optional side curtains for added protection.

Open flow decking is designed with cut-outs to allow wind and water to pass through, reducing resistance and improving stability.

No, once you’re on our service list, we automatically schedule your seasonal dock and hoist services unless we hear otherwise from you.

For steel hoists, canopies can be installed as soon as the hoist is in place. For aluminum hoists, canopies are installed after the boat is in the water.

Yes, we store hoists both during the season and in the off-season.

Yes, we work with fishermen and marinas to accommodate late-season removals as boats are taken out of the water.
