You know that keeping your boat lift out of the water is the best way to keep it safe for next season and to work well for years to come. ShoreMaster has wheel kits for Infinity Boat Lift Systems that make it easy to simply roll your lift out of the water when the weather cools down. However, getting it out of the water isn’t the only thing you can do: make sure you’re storing your boat lift properly this fall with these simple tips.

Seasonal boat owners know when there’s a chill in the air that it’s time to remove the boat dock system from the water. Your dock sits in the water all summer, and while they’re designed to be durable, they shouldn’t be left in the water in the fall and winter. This is especially true if you live by water with a lot of ice movement or an area prone to serious winter weather conditions. Once you remove and store your boat, the lift, and the accessories, it’s time to think about your dock. Approach dock removal with a plan and ensure that you’re taking proper care of it as you’re winterizing it.

Protecting your boat lift will ensure that it can continue to protect your boat: keep these tips in mind as you pack up your lift.

So much of ShoreMaster’s catalog is aluminum boat docks and accessories, and we’re very proud of those offerings—we love talking about the benefits of aluminum. However, we also carry Rhino Dock, which uses galvanized steel instead of aluminum. It’s not that we don’t love aluminum docks, but because galvanized steel has its advantages, especially where Rhino Docks are concerned. Steel is a durable, cost-effective option great for large marinas, commercial docks, and other waterfronts that experience heavy use and need extra stability. Read on to learn more about our other top-of-the-line dock system and the benefits you’re getting when you invest in galvanized steel.
