Easily Store Your PWC on a Lift

PWCs are a fun way to enjoy the lake this summer! It's important to protect your investment with the right PWC lift at the Lake of the Ozarks. Here at the best boat lift company at the Lake of the Ozarks, we have a variety of PWC lifts available. Check out our various options:

SINGLE PLACE

The flagship of our PWC line, the poly tank front-mount unit is quite capable of withstanding any water conditions. The design of the frame gives a smooth modern look and superior strength. The flotation tanks are some of the largest in the industry and this means you WILL have dry feet when you want to maintain or cover your craft, GUARANTEED.

Capacity: 1,200 lbs.


DOUBLE PLACE

The Double-Place Personal Water Craft lift is an extension of our popular single place design. For considerable price saving over purchasing two single’s, the double is available in several configurations. The width of the frame can be fit to most popular slip widths including 10, 11, 12 & 14’. The frame is also ideal for the discriminating boater that wants to fully deck the unit.

Capacity: 2,200 lbs.


PERMAPORT

The PermaPort floating platform is an alternative in the PWC storage market. The PermaPort has a self-centering entry roller for easy drive-on and five additional keel rollers to make the push off effortless. A key feature is the expanded poly foam fill that gives positive floatation should the shell become compromised – other brands are simply “filled with air” and will “fill with water” when punctured… The front-mount bracket has been upgraded to be Lake of the Ozarks friendly as well.


SIDEMOUNT

The side-mount mechanical lift is available for the homeowner with property line issues. It’s a space-saver in that the footprint on the dock is only 5 1/2 feet instead of 11 feet.

Capacity: 920 lbs.

Stop trailering your PWC back and forth for the weekend and easily store your vessel on your dock with a new PWC lift at the Lake of the Ozarks. Contact Summerset Boat Lifts today to learn about your options and get your lift ordered before the heat of summer is here!
