Another quality boat lift installed today.
Recently we posted about a string of boat lift failures. These were all of the same brand installed by various competitors. We absolutely do not install this brand of lift. The latest lift failure was captured on a security camera and the video was shared with us. Here is a Quick Look into what happens when there is a catastrophic failure of the lifting plate worm gear. If you’re concerned about your current lift or if you’re looking for a quality product, give us a call today!

In the past year alone, we’ve seen more than 5 boats drop unexpectedly due to catastrophic failures of poorly manufactured boat lift plates installed by various competitors.
Thankfully, no one has been injured—but the risk is very real.
Here’s the part most people don’t realize:
Even with regular maintenance, these lifts can fail without warning. They are extremely difficult—if not impossible—to properly inspect for wear, making it nearly impossible to predict their lifespan.
That’s exactly why we do things differently.
✅ We only install USA-made boat lifts
✅ Built with higher-quality materials and standards
✅ Designed with an inspection cover, allowing us to check the worm gear during every service interval
This means:
• Better reliability
• Safer operation
• Real visibility into the condition of your lift
When it comes to your boat—and more importantly, the safety of your family and friends—cutting corners just isn’t worth it.
If you currently have a lift and aren’t sure what’s inside it, now is the time to take a closer look.
📩 Reach out to us for an inspection or to learn more about safer lift options.
We have included some images of the failed lifting plates as well as the damaged cradle due to the failure.
