Protect That New PWC!

Did you order a new PWC at the last boat show? Are you planning to buy one this spring? Our Lake of the Ozarks boat lift company is here to help you find the right PWC lift to protect your new investment. Personal watercrafts are a blast out on the water! From a quick cruise up the lake to jumping waves -- it's a thrilling ride no matter what you do on a PWC. We know how much fun your PWC can be and that's why we want to help you keep it protected and stored safely when it's not in use. We have many options available for PWC lifts at the Lake of the Ozarks. Check them out:

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.

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.

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.

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.

Whether you already have a new PWC on the way or you've got your eye on one, it's time to upgrade to a new PWC lift at the Lake of the Ozarks to protect your new investment. Contact Summerset Boat Lifts today and we'll hook you up with the right lift for your unique dock and PWC situation! We look forward to hearing about your new toy, too!

Tips to Keep Your Dock Safe from Heavy Snow or Ice Damage this Winter

The first big snowstorm of the winter has hit the Lake of the Ozarks and that means it's time to ensure your dock is prepared for the winter storms and cold temps ahead. As the best boat lift company at the Lake of the Ozarks, we know how important it is to keep your investment safe during the off season. Docks, boats, lifts, and PWCs are all valuable investments, and protecting them during the harsh winter months should be high on your list of importance. Our boat lift company at the Lake of the Ozarks is here to help you prepare!

Remove Heavy Snow from Dock

Large amounts of snow, especially wet snow can cause a lot of stress on your dock. Heavy enough snow can even start to submerge your dock underwater! If a heavy snowfall occurs, it's important to have a plan in place for how to get that excess weight off your dock. There are many service companies that specialize in dock snow removal. It may seem like a job for a go-getter homeowner, but it's best to leave that kind of work to the pros. Without the proper experience and equipment, it can be quite dangerous to remove snow from your dock!


Keep Ice from Forming Against the Dock

The freezing temps of winter can cause ice to form on the surface of the lake. If ice starts to form against your dock, specifically between your dock and shore, it can cause a number of issues. From tweaking your dock frame to pulling your dock away from shore, there are many potential hazards of ice forming around your dock. A Kasco De-Icer is the way to go to protect your dock, boat, and lift from ice formation damage. We're proud to carry this reliable brand of dock de-icers to help protect your property this winter!

With the current snow amounts we have, it's important to have a plan to clear the heavy snow off your dock. It's also a good idea to start preparing for the next winter storm and frigid temps that are right around the corner. Contact our boat lift company at the Lake of the Ozarks today to order your Kasco De-Icer to help protect your dock this winter!
