How to Buy a Lift
Get expert help to buy the right type of lift.
We’ll ask you about the type and size of your boat, the layout of your docks, the conditions of the water, and the type of ground of your section of the lake.
Further customize your boatlift by adding a cover and colored canopy, and deciding if you want it to be manual, powered, or hydraulic.
Boat Rail Systems
Endres Manufacturing’s boat rail systems offer the most protection. You can store your boat inside a boathouse or garage near the water with rail systems, without having to trailer it before and after each use. Rail systems allow you to drive onto a track in the water. Then, a trolley system lifts your boat into the boathouse.

Hewitt Hi-Lift Vertical Lift
The Hewitt Hi-Lift Vertical Lift is perfect for deep water areas, or areas where the water level tends to fluctuate. This lift goes straight up and straight down to accommodate different water levels. These lifts are rock solid and have lowered horizontal frame beams so no climbing over parts of your lift to get into your boat.
Personal watercraft lift
Personal watercraft lifts allow you to keep your PWC in the water all boating season long! We offer single or double PWC lifts, so you can customize your shore-front to your needs. Our lifts range in weight capacity from 700 lbs to 1800 lbs and are a sturdy and safe solution to storing your personal watercraft.
Hewitt’s narrow pontoon lift
Hewitt’s narrow pontoon lift safely raises and lowers even the longest pontoon boats. The full-length beams on this lift raise the boat between the pontoons, not beneath them. This allows for weight to be evenly distributed and is easier on your boat.
Waveport
The waveport is a slide-on lift system that can accommodate any size of personal watercraft. The waveport is maintenance-free and can be easily attached to docks or float individually. The waveport also comes in a large size which can work with boats up to 30’ long. These floating lifts allow for equal weight distribution providing great buoyancy.
Lift canopy
Protect your boat with a lift canopy. Constant exposure to sun, wind, and rain can be incredibly damaging to your boat. Hewitt’s nylon reinforced vinyl covers provide protection and add years to the life of your boat. These lift covers come in many sizes and colors, so you can customize your lift.
