boat lift

A boat lift is a device used to raise and lower boats between different water levels, typically between a river, lake, or marina and a slip or storage area. It works by securely gripping the boat, then lifting it out of the water using mechanical, hydraulic, or electrical systems. This allows for easy transportation and protection of boats from damage caused by waves or currents. Boat lifts are especially useful in areas with fluctuating water levels or where boat storage is limited, providing a practical and safe way to handle vessels without the need for a trailer or dockside crane.
