There’s a reason FLOE aluminum boat lifts are boat owner’s first choice throughout the US and Canada. With its 15 year limited warranty, FLOE boat lifts lead the industry in technology and design.
Docks for every shoreline

Types Of Floe Boat Lifts We Offer

Different Lakes & Shorelines need different docks.  We will help you find the perfect lift for your boat!

Vertical Screw Driver (VSD) Boat Lifts

FLOE’s VSD technology lowers and raises your boat or pontoon in about one-half the time of most other powered boat lifts. It’s the most energy-efficient vertical boat lift in the world. The drive train is whisper quiet with no clicking winch gears or pinging cable.

Wide Range Of Weight Capacity

From small fishing boats to massive pontoons and surf boats - FLOE has a model that will fit your boat needs.

Low Maintenance Electric Motor

The low-maintenance electric motor spins the screw so the ball nut travels back and forth as it pulls the lifting cable. The industrial strength ball-screw is rated for 20,000 cycles at 10,000 lbs. No need to ever replace a worn winch cable with a VSD boat lift!

Wireless or Wired Operation

Use either the standard 30 foot cord connected remote or add an optional wireless remote - control your lift however you want!

Words can only do so much when it comes to describing what a game changer the VSD system and adjustable screw legs are - see them both in action below!

12 Volt or Manual Winch Vertical Boat Lift

FLOE vertical boat lifts featuring electric 12-volt and manual winches are built with the same craftsmanship as the VSD lifts. Aluminum winch boat lifts are strong and long-lasting.

12 Volt DC Winch

FLOE’s 12-volt DC electric boat lift winch lets you easily raise and lower your boat or pontoon with the push of a button. It includes a wired remote with 30′ cord that has a key switch allowing you to turn off the lift when you are away.

Manual Winch

FLOE's strong and reliable manual winch makes raising or lowering your boat a breeze - with no electrical hookups required!

Pivot Lifts For Personal Watercraft

When you find something of quality, you hold on to it tightly. A durable, extra rigid pivot lift will stand the test of time. Treat it well, and it will treat you well. It will never let you down - FLOE offers three separate models of PWC lifts to accomodate most all of todays small watercraft.

Multiple PWC Lift Options

PWC-1300 – Extra-rigid design is engineered to easily handle up to larger four-passenger PWCs. The V-1600 is a great choice for today’s personal watercraft. The V-2602 can hold two PWCs at adjustable, staggered heights and includes two pair of full-length bunks.

Manual or DC Winch Options

Choose a sturdy, reliable manual winch or option your lift with FLOE's DC winch, requiring only one 16 series 12 volt battery.

Sturdy Aluminum Construction

Custom extruded aluminum frames for reliable, safe, and long lasting lifts.

FLOE Boat Lift Canopies

FLOE boat lift canopies offer greater boat protection than competitors lifts with their extra deep fabric and framework. Your canopy will not blow in or up and will keep your boat fully covered.

Multiple Canopy Options

Choose between the AIRMAX standard or premier, MAXIS, or a free standing cover if you do not have a boat lift.

Push Of A Button Boat Access

The MAXIS frame can tilt up with the push of a button to allow you to easily access your boat lift and boat.

FAQ

Floe Boat Lifts Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some answers to commonly asked qusetions we hear about the Docks we sell

  • Easy-Level™ System: FLOE’s patented Easy-Level™ system allows you to adjust the lift’s height without getting into the water, making seasonal changes much simpler.
  • Modular Design: FLOE boat lifts are designed with interchangeable components, making them adaptable to various boat types and changing water conditions.
  • Sturdy Construction: Aluminum and stainless-steel hardware help ensure corrosion resistance and longevity.
  • User-Friendly Operation: Many FLOE lifts come with optional power winches or direct drive systems for effortless lifting and lowering.
  • Versatility: FLOE offers models suitable for a range of watercraft sizes, from small fishing boats to larger pontoons and wake boats.

  • Vertical Lifts: Ideal for deeper water or fluctuating water levels. These lifts raise the boat vertically, reducing the need to reposition the lift in varying water depths.
  • Pivot Lifts: A good choice for smaller watercraft. Pivot lifts often have a lower profile and can be easier to install in shallower water.
  • Pontoon and Tritoon Lifts: Designed with specialized bunks or guides to accommodate the broader footprint of pontoon-style boats.
  • Canopies and Accessories: FLOE also offers canopy systems to protect your boat from sun, rain, and debris, plus additional accessories like guide-ons, motor stops, and remote controls.

  1. Site Evaluation: Assess water depth, bottom composition, and shoreline access to determine the best lift model and any needed accessories (e.g., leg extensions or anchoring systems).
  2. Assembly on Shore: Attach key components—such as the frame, winch or power drive, and bunks—on shore before moving the lift into the water.
  3. Positioning: Float or move the assembled lift into place. Adjust leg lengths or anchoring systems to ensure the lift sits level.
  4. Height and Bunk Adjustments: Use FLOE’s Easy-Level™ system (if applicable) to fine-tune lift height. Align and secure the bunks or guides to fit your boat’s hull.
  5. Power Source Setup: If you have a powered winch or direct drive, connect it to the appropriate power source (AC, DC, or solar options may be available).
  6. Test and Inspect: Verify the lift raises and lowers smoothly and that the boat is properly balanced on the bunks. Check for any loose hardware or leaks (for hydraulic or power-driven models).

For best results, consider professional installation or guidance - both provided by BC Boat Lift and Dock!

  • Regular Inspection: Periodically check the frame, cables (if applicable), pulleys, and winch system for signs of wear or corrosion.
  • Lubrication: Lubricate moving parts (such as pulleys, winch gears, and pivot points) according to FLOE’s recommendations.
  • Cleaning: Remove algae, weeds, or debris buildup to prevent corrosion and maintain smooth operation.
  • Seasonal Adjustments: If your water levels fluctuate, you may need to adjust the lift’s height using the Easy-Level™ system.
  • Annual Service: An annual professional check-up can catch minor issues early, prolonging the life of the lift and maintaining warranty coverage.

  • Limited Manufacturer’s Warranty: FLOE typically provides a limited warranty covering structural components and major parts. Specific coverage periods can vary by product line.
  • Authorized Dealer Network: FLOE’s network of dealers can offer in-person service, parts, and support.
  • Extended Warranty Options: Some dealers may provide extended warranty plans or maintenance packages for added peace of mind.
  • Customer Support: FLOE’s website and customer service channels offer resources such as manuals, FAQs, and troubleshooting guides. You can also reach out directly for technical assistance.

  • Boat Weight and Size: Select a lift model with the correct weight capacity and bunk system to accommodate your boat’s hull design (e.g., V-hull, pontoon, tritoon).
  • Water Depth and Conditions: Consider whether a vertical lift (for deeper or fluctuating water) or a pivot lift (for shallower, more stable depths) is appropriate.
  • Shoreline and Bottom Composition: Soft or rocky bottoms, steep drop-offs, and strong currents may require specific leg lengths or anchoring accessories.
  • Boat Usage: If you frequently launch and dock your boat, a powered system or remote control may save time and effort.
  • Professional Advice: Consult with a FLOE dealer to ensure you’re getting the right model and accessories for your unique site and boat specifications.
