Posted on December 01, 2022 By HydroHoist Marketing Team
Your boat dock is your walkway to the water, and your boat lift protects your boat from the hazards of the elements. Your waterfront retreat wouldn’t be complete without either, just like it wouldn’t be complete without your watercraft. Your boat lift and dock are intended to last as long as your boat does, or even longer—25 years is a typical lifespan. However, that depends several factors, one of the biggest being the amount of care you put into them. While they’re designed to be rugged and stand up to the strain of the elements as well as your boat itself, boat lifts still need regular maintenance to stay at peak performance for long periods.
Follow these lists for the kind of boat lift maintenance and upkeep you can expect to do.

Whether you enjoy intense watersports or tranquil nature-watching, there’s a lot that boat ownership can enhance.
You probably already know that buying a boat is a significant investment. Not only do you have the obvious upfront cost of purchasing a boat, but there are also maintenance, moorage fees, accessories, fuel, and other expenses. It’s no wonder watercraft have something of a reputation as money pits.
Does that mean that a boat isn’t worth the cost? Not necessarily. Whether or not it’s the right decision for you is ultimately up to you, but weighing the pros and cons of owning a boat before you buy it will help you get the most out of it, your money, and your waterfront.
