Boat Lift Question
 
I am looking for a lift for our 28 Powerplay. Found a decent deal for a hewitt lift. Are they any good? We have moderate wave action and I dont want to install pilings. The lift would be in Lake Winnipesaukee. Thanks for your help

I live on Long Island, and recently purchased a "HIGH- TIDE" brand lift. Pretty expensive but real nice. A close friend is a dock builder and says they are the best. The name may be spelled HI-TIDE and they have a website. Hope I helped. ERIK

Consider a JET DOCK?

I live on a very rough lake and went thru several lifts before finding the Viking lift. Absolutely the best lift.

Lake Winnipesaukie!!!; --truck driver shows up at our facility(guy named Dave) the other day- we're walking through the warehouse and he stops when he sees my boat and says "now that's my kinda boat, I've got a 42' Fountain high deck back home". At first I'm thinking, sure, yeah, but he does seem to know his stuff. Anyway he mentioned that he boats on or has a new house on Lake Winnipesaukie. Anybody know of the boat? supposedly a pair of 700hp.

Yes they are, I have 3 in my back yard. Put the first one in back in 1992, other than replacing the cables the lift has been flawless. The lift is 6061 so it looks amost as good as the day it went in. I was so impressed by their product that I became a dealer, sold the biz in 2000.
