I see a lot of these lifts when we run down the intercoastal towards st augustine and most have a dock around the entire boat so it wouldnt take much to accidently miss the lift and go to far forward and under the dock. Just imagine if a cruiser was going by and you were trying to dock and the wake just knocked you forward under the dock. You also have the changing tides as well to deal with. Sad loss for the entire family
