The Big Bass Bash is a bass tournament designed for amateurs only. Its unique format allows the weekend angler a chance to win big money like the professionals. Unlike most fishing tournaments which have a team arrangement where prizes are based on total weight, the Big Bass Bash format is distinctive in that it only takes one fisherman just one big bass to win.

What are you waiting for? Now's the ideal time to schedule your Lake of the Ozarks boat lift maintenance checks before the heat of the season hits and you're ready to get your boat out on the water ASAP! Especially with the frozen over lake just over a month ago, it's important that you have your dock and lift looked over to catch potential issues before they become even more detrimental to the safety and structure of your dock.

We also have Wet Steps!  Wet Steps provide the easiest way for anyone and everyone to get in and out of the water.  They are a snap to raise and lower, and so convenient to use.  Grandparents and grandkids alike notice how comfortable it is to use the steps – almost like walking up a set of stairs.  It can actually make all the difference to someone with physical limitations – allowing them to access the water when they may not otherwise be able to.  Plus, with so many colors available, you can even give your dock a little pop!

Are you excited to get out and do some water sports?  We hear you!  We can help you with life jackets and ski ropes, too!  If you are looking for other accessories we can recommend to you where to find them locally!  We even have the most awesome dock boxes to securely store all your stuff in, too!

Lifts For Your New PWC

Whether you just purchased a new PWC at the recent boat show or you're thinking about getting a new one before the boating season officially kicks off, now's the time to think of the best ways to protect your new PWC. Check out the great options Summerset Boat Lifts has available for PWC lift at the Lake of the Ozarks:

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.

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.

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.

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.

Your PWC provides a ton of summer fun at the Lake of the Ozarks. Ensure you protect your investment with the right PWC lift at the Lake of the Ozarks for your unique PWC needs. Give us a call today to chat about your new PWC and how we can help you best protect it!

Boat Lift & Dock Maintenance Checks Before Boating Season

The recent weather has taken a toll on many docks and boat lifts in the past several days. From below freezing temps last week to the unseasonably warm temps this week, a lot of damage is found around waterfront properties at the Lake of the Ozarks. If you have a dock and boat lift at the Lake of the Ozarks, consider going through these maintenance checks before you use your dock this spring. 

Inspect Dock for Damage

The frozen water combined with the lowering lake level has created a dangerous combination for docks across the Lake of the Ozarks. If you can visibly see damage, it's important to recruit the help of a professional to ensure your dock is fixed property and to code. Even if there is no physical damage visible to the eye, it's a good idea to have your dock checked out by a professional to ensure no unseen structural damage has occurred. 

Conduct a Lift Maintenance Check

Your boat lift was put through the ringer with the recent temperature drop and ice quickly forming across the Lake of the Ozarks. Ice forming against your lift can quickly cause damage to the metal bracing that supports your lift. It's important to schedule a boat lift maintenance check at the Lake of the Ozarks before you move your lift up or down this spring. 

Schedule Electrical Inspection of Dock

With docks being pulled away from the shore and many cat walks being stretched to the max, the electrical hook ups and lines to your dock have likely been compromised. Dock electrical is not something to leave to chance. Ensure your dock electric system is inspected before you start using your dock this season. 

Even a week later, the ice is still THICK and causing damage to your dock and lift!

We recommend having your property looked at before you start using your dock and lift this boating season. Our boat lift maintenance crew has already been called out to conduct checks on lifts so be sure to call now to get on the books before the warmth of boating season is here! Contact Summerset Boat Lifts at 573-348-5073 today!

There's something special about seeing a product in person. You get the see and feel the item you're about the purchase and get a good idea of how it's going to benefit you and your boating needs. The off-water shows also give you the chance to see a lift from a different perspective -- out of the water and on dry land! You can really see what you're going to purchase at a boat show.

Time is money and the easier it is to visit with multiple vendors, the better. You can easily compare products and prices at a boat show.
