You look to be in a marina facility? If so move the floating lift and the air control to a different slip with deeper water, plug the air control into some power and lower it. Then just put it back.

This was a thought of ours also. Just concerned with the lift being imbalanced and tipping in the slip. Then we would be really screwed. I was thinking today that with us just needing one foot of water, it might not hurt to see if someone can bring a jet dredger out to see if we can move a foot of material. I would imaging it wouldnt be that expensive, assuming it isnt all rock.

How about a pressure washer with a wand extension? DIY

I was just reading another post about something similar to this. If I was closer than 4 hours away I would be there every night trying different things. Want to make sure the next time I go, I am for sure coming home with the boat lol. I want it off the lift before leaving my house.

Just got tagged in a post on Facebook, looks like Ozark Powerboat Club got a good pic of me running in the shootout.

On my western NY lake we have boats like this that remove and replace large free standing boat lifts. If your location has these type boats it could both take weight off the stern and pull.

One of our local lift and sea wall companies removed over 2’ of slit from under my lift with a big pressure washer and mud pump. Took less than an hour, but no rock.

I am going to call my storage company today and if they are for sure going to have my storage ready this month I will start calling around to see if someone can just get down there and find out if it is rock or not.
