WHY CHOOSE HYDRO-HOIST BOAT LIFTS?

AMERICA’S MOST TRUSTED BOAT LIFT MANUFACTURER

HydroHoist has led the industry in boat lift innovation and reliability for over five decades. Here’s why boat owners consistently choose HydroHoist UltraLift over other boat hoist options:

  1. UNMATCHED DURABILITY

HydroHoist’s polyethylene tanks flex when stressed and return undamaged to their original shape, outlasting metal alternatives. With all steel components positioned above water, our boat lifts resist corrosion in ways competing systems cannot match.

  1. SUPERIOR BOAT PROTECTION

Your boat represents a significant investment. The UltraLift boat lift system keeps your vessel high and dry, preventing hull damage, stopping algae growth, and eliminating water absorption into fiberglass—all factors that decrease your boat’s value over time.

  1. EASE OF USE

Why struggle with manual boat launching when you can enjoy one-touch convenience? HydroHoist boat lifts make boating more enjoyable by eliminating the physical strain of traditional launching methods.

  1. CUSTOMIZABLE FOR YOUR SPECIFIC BOAT

The UltraLift Series accommodates virtually any recreational boat, with models ranging from 5,000 to 32,000 pounds capacity. Our expert dealers configure your boat lift system specifically for your vessel and docking situation.

  1. MADE IN AMERICA

Every HydroHoist boat lift is proudly designed and manufactured in the USA, supporting American jobs while ensuring the highest quality standards.
