5,600 lb Hewitt Vertical Boat Lift

Description

Safely store and protect your boat with the 5,600 lb Hewitt Vertical Boat Lift, a heavy-duty freestanding lift engineered for reliable performance in a variety of waterfront conditions. Designed for larger fishing boats, ski boats, runabouts, and other recreational watercraft, this lift raises your boat straight up and down to help reduce hull staining, algae growth, corrosion, and damage caused by prolonged water exposure. Its vertical lifting design makes it an excellent choice for deeper shorelines and lakes where water levels change throughout the boating season.

With a 5,600-pound lifting capacity, 114-inch inside width, 114-inch bed length, and 63.5 inches of lift travel, this lift provides stable support while maximizing usable dock space. The reinforced vertical lifting design delivers smooth, controlled lifting while keeping your boat elevated above the waterline. Its freestanding construction is especially beneficial for waterfronts where permanent boat lift installations aren’t practical, including lakes that freeze during the winter. Because the lift can be installed, removed, and repositioned as needed, it offers exceptional flexibility for seasonal boat owners without sacrificing strength or stability. Built from corrosion-resistant marine-grade aluminum, this lift is engineered for years of dependable freshwater performance with minimal maintenance.

Standard equipment includes two 12-foot carpeted bunks, a 1501 self-braking winch, 40-inch winch wheel, and four 30-inch adjustable leveling legs for secure support on uneven lake bottoms. Available in manual, 110V AC, or 12V DC configurations, the lift can be tailored to your dock and preferred operating style. Optional upgrades—including remote controls, aluminum bunks, V-cradles, pontoon cradles, and solar panel packages—allow you to customize the lift for your specific boat and waterfront setup. Whether you’re replacing an aging lift or installing a new seasonal docking system, the Hewitt 5,600 lb Vertical Boat Lift delivers premium craftsmanship, reliable lifting performance, and lasting peace of mind.
