ShoreMaster Floating Lifts

Floating Boat Lifts from ShoreMaster are designed to last for the long haul because they’re manufactured to keep the steel components out of the water when the lift is in the up position. These air/water displacement systems work best in floating docks, U-shaped slips, or attached from the front of the lift to an existing floating dock or pier. The boat lift arms are built super tough and they’re strong enough to give you peace of mind when you leave your boat on the lift. The rigid, crush resistant tanks can withstand even the toughest waterfront challenges.

Available for slips 9' wide to 14' wide and in a variety of capacities.

Poly Lift Floating Lifts

Poly Lift is one of the most innovated and trusted names in the air/water float lift industry.Owners Mark and Mike Maason have spent their lives working to give peace of mind to boat owners so they could rest easy knowing their boat was protected in nearly any situation. The first to use high density polyethylene allowing for a lifetime warranty and the use of ultra high molecular weight plastic allowing for a five year warranty on the float structure and bushings has placed Poly Lift ahead of the rest. The one-handle control per blower motor makes for simple and safe operations and innovations extends beyond the float lift itself. Poly Lift's have often been custom designed for high performance boats, boats with special hull designs and work platforms that wrap around the boat to function as a dock.

Poly Lift Features
Polyethylene Flotation - High density polyethylene pipe material is used for lift flotation. The construction of this material provides extra buoyancy when tank is submerged. This feature minimizes downward load pressure on docks. Due to the tank wall thickness it is difficult to puncture with a propeller or other sharp objects.
Extra Heavy Duty Frame - Manufactured with structural steel and then hot dipped and galvanized. Assembled with galvanized case hardened bolts.
Heavy-Duty Lift Blower Motor - Provides more efficient lift operation enabling the Poly Lift to rise in less time than most lifts.
Parallel Center Frame Brace - Provides additional stability.
Polyethylene Adjustable Pads - With embossed grip pattern impervious to chemicals, salt, ice, or heat, virtually maintenance free.
Control Stand - The attractive Poly Lift control housing uses stainless hardware and is lockable. Operation is made easy by opening and closing just one valve per motor. One control stand for dual operation.
Patented Torsion Clamp - Designed and engineered to decrease the possibility of frame torque and increase rigidity.
High-Tech Bushings - Made of high molecular weight material to insure ease and quietness of operation with very little friction.
Poly Lift – The highest resale value of all lifts in its market due a reputation for heavy-duty construction, reliability, and virtually maintenance free operation.
