THE PERFECT BOAT LIFT SOLUTION FOR UNIQUE DOCK CONFIGURATIONS
The HydroHoist UltraLift Front Mount boat lift delivers specialized protection for boaters with non-standard dock setups. Designed with innovative front-mounting technology, this premium boat hoist provides the same legendary HydroHoist protection while accommodating challenging dock scenarios:
- U-shaped Slips: Perfect integration with the front of U-shaped dock configurations
- Double-wide Moorings: Share a slip with another vessel while maintaining dedicated lift capabilities
- L-shaped Docks: Maximize corner space that traditional boat lifts can’t accommodate
- Extra-wide Slips: Create additional dock space for fishing, PWC storage, or relaxation
The UltraLift Front Mount boat lift secures to your dock with specialized mounting brackets, allowing the rear portion to lower like a boat trailer ramp while keeping most components above water. This innovative design not only protects your boat but actually strengthens your dock structure.
HOW THE ULTRALIFT FRONT MOUNT WORKS
The UltraLift Front Mount boat lift operates using a revolutionary pivoting design:
- Front Mount Attachment: The boat lift secures to the front of your dock with two heavy-duty mounting brackets featuring solid-steel circular pivots.
- Side Support System: Additional side brackets attached to your dock support the lift in its lowered position and provide upward pressure when raised.
- Trailer-Like Operation: When lowered, the back of the lift submerges underwater at an angle, similar to a trailer backed down a boat ramp.
- Easy Loading: Drive your boat up the lift just as you would onto a partially submerged trailer.
- Secure Elevation: The lift’s motor raises both your boat and the steel frame completely out of the water, keeping your vessel high and dry.
- Dock Integration: In the raised position, the system strengthens your dock by adding upward pressure through the side brackets, essentially combining your boat lift and dock as a single integrated unit.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT ULTRALIFT FRONT MOUNT BOAT LIFTS
How does the UltraLift Front Mount boat lift differ from standard boat hoists?
The UltraLift Front Mount attaches directly to the front of your dock rather than sitting alongside it. This unique mounting system allows the lift to accommodate specialty dock configurations like U-shaped slips, L-shaped docks, and double-wide moorings that traditional boat lifts cannot service.
What types of dock configurations work with a Front Mount boat lift?
The UltraLift Front Mount boat lift is specifically designed for floating U-shaped slips, double-wide slips where two boats share a wider space, and L-shaped moorings. If you have an unusual dock configuration that doesn’t accommodate standard lifts, the Front Mount is likely your ideal solution.
What is the maximum weight capacity for the UltraLift Front Mount boat lift?
The current UltraLift Front Mount boat lift models can safely hoist boats up to 6,500 pounds. This capacity accommodates a wide range of popular recreational boats, including bowriders, deck boats, smaller pontoons, and fishing boats.
Does the UltraLift Front Mount require more maintenance than standard boat lifts?
No, the UltraLift Front Mount is designed to be virtually maintenance-free. In fact, its unique design places less metal in the water than traditional boat hoists, creating a less corrosive environment that can actually reduce long-term maintenance requirements.
How does the Front Mount lift affect my dock structure?
Unlike traditional boat lifts that operate independently, the UltraLift Front Mount actually strengthens your floating dock. When in the raised position, the side brackets apply upward pressure to your dock, effectively adding buoyancy and structural support while simultaneously protecting your boat.
Can I install an UltraLift Front Mount boat lift myself?
While the system is engineered for straightforward installation, we recommend professional installation by an authorized HydroHoist dealer. Proper mounting is critical to the lift’s performance, and our trained dealers ensure correct setup for your specific dock configuration.
How quickly can my boat be launched from the UltraLift Front Mount?
With push-button operation, your boat can be lowered and ready for launching in approximately 60-90 seconds. This quick deployment means more time enjoying the water and less time waiting for your boat to be ready.
Will the UltraLift Front Mount work with floating docks?
Yes, the UltraLift Front Mount is specifically designed for floating dock applications. In fact, the system actually enhances your floating dock’s performance by adding lift and stability when in the raised position.
