Another LOTO boat lift ?

As far as brand, can you offer any practical experience as far as brands. After speaking with some dealers I was told that I should stay away from Fibersteel and Titan. No flames please, its not my intent and I remain open to suggestions. The fibersteel brands I have ruled out already b/c I don't favor the design, however I know nothing specific to Titan. Can anyone provide imput. Thanks in advance.

I have had Econolifts with Cig's, pontoon's, and a ski boat on them in rough water with no problems. Steve at Econolift is great to work with.

I would recommend you call Dave or Brian at Summerset Lifts. They build and maintain all of my lifts at the lake.
