PWC Lift vs. Drive-On Port

PWC lifts raise your personal watercraft fully out of the water, reducing hull exposure and allowing controlled, push-button lifting. They’re ideal for owners who want added protection, quiet operation, and secure storage.

Drive-on ports allow riders to load PWCs directly from the water without lifting. They offer fast access and simple operation, especially in calm conditions.

Both options protect your PWC, but the best choice depends on water depth, dock type, and how often you launch and store your watercraft.

FAQs for PWC Lifts:

What’s the best lift style for my jet ski?

Vertical lifts are ideal for fluctuating water depths. Cantilever lifts are a simple, low-profile solution for consistent shallow water. Your local dealer can recommend the best fit.

Can I add a motor later?

Yes. LiftBoss can be added anytime for push-button operation.

How do I power the lift?

All motorized systems run on a standard 12V marine deep cycle battery. Solar kits are available to keep it charged.

Will it fit my jet ski brand?

Absolutely. ShoreMaster lifts and bunks are designed to fit Sea-Doos, Waverunners, Jet Skis, and nearly all modern PWC models.

What PWCs fit these lifts?

PWC lifts are designed to fit most personal watercraft, including popular models from Sea-Doo, Yamaha, and Kawasaki. Fit depends on the PWC’s length, weight, and hull shape, so selecting a lift with the appropriate capacity and bunk configuration helps ensure proper support and safe operation.

Are PWC lifts electric?

Yes, many PWC lifts are electric, offering smooth, quiet push-button operation. Some models may also be available with manual or hydraulic options depending on setup and dock configuration. Power choice depends on convenience preferences and installation requirements.

Can I use PWC lifts with floating docks?

Yes, PWC lifts can be used with floating docks when properly configured. Compatibility depends on dock design, attachment method, and lift type. Floating dock setups are common for PWC storage and can work well with both lift and drive-on port solutions.

Do PWC lifts work in shallow water?

Many PWC lifts are suitable for shallow water, especially vertical or cantilever designs that minimize required depth. Exact water depth requirements vary by model, so choosing a lift designed for shallow conditions helps ensure smooth operation and reliable lifting.
