Boat Lift / SN

[jjackkrash]

Any idea if this would work for a new model Ski Nautique? Or what I need to know to find out if it will work?

 

Never bought a lift before.

Beam is 98 inches on the boat.

It should lift it ok, but you're nearing the capacity - a 4,000 lb+ would be better for the new SN. I'm not sure what the Seattle market is for lifts versus here in Minnesota, but that lift is pretty overpriced compared to our local market, considering it's a manual winch and has no canopy. For that price I picked up a similar capacity lift with canopy and dc electric motor last summer, and prices this year aren't too far north of that. (We may have a bigger supply of used lifts around here though)

@TomH got it, I'll keep looking for a 4K+ lift.

Pass on that. Winch doesn’t size the lift usually. The frame and stuff like that does. You will probably want at least approx 108” width, which was standard for many years for freestanding lifts like that. 116-120” more in demand now due to wakeboats, so should be able to find something.

Also agree price is high.

There has to be a 3500-4000 lb 108” that someone is selling because their new boat won’t fit.

Not sure what exactly will work for your situation, but I can certainly recommend these guys. http://boatcradles.com/
