At Summertime Deck & Dock, boat lift and dock installation are more than mere services. It is our way of helping boat owners in Central Florida protect their investment with serious craftsmanship and a smile.
This page explains how we install, repair, and maintain boat lifts of every shape and size. You will also find out why our quirky crew just might be the best team for your dock.
Why Boat Lifts Matter and Why Your Boat Will Thank You
Leaving your boat in the water all year is like storing your wedding cake in a sauna. Boat lifts give you control, stability, and a dry place to call home.
- Stop Algae From Starting a Colony: Staying submerged encourages barnacles, slime, and marine squatters. Lifting your boat keeps them from settling in.
- Protect Hull Integrity and Prevent Warp: Water movement bends and twists your hull over time. A boat lift holds your vessel steady and square.
- Simplify Washdowns and Wax Ups: It is hard to clean what you cannot see. Our lifts make it easy to polish, inspect, and admire your boat.
- Guard Against Corrosion and Electrolysis: Saltwater and stray voltage quickly ruin metal parts. Lifting removes the boat from both threats.
- Add Value Without Getting Too Fancy: A lift increases your dock’s function and appeal. Buyers notice, and neighbors usually get a little jealous.
New Boat Lift Installation Customized For Your Watercraft
No boat is the same, and neither are the lifts we install. We tailor every lift to your vessel, your dock, and the personality behind the helm.
- Tailored for Lakes, Canals, and Intracoastal Zones: Our systems work in calm lakes, brackish inlets, and wild tidewaters. We choose the best lift for your dock layout.
- Cradle Lifts, Boat Hoists, and Hydraulic Systems: We install everything from classic boat cradles to heavy-duty boat hoists and whisper-quiet hydraulics.
- Built With Aerospace Precision: Robin is an aerospace engineer who left the lab for the water. Your boat lift gets that same level of overachievement.
- Supports Boats Big and Small: We install lifts for Jet Skis, fishing boats, pontoons, and recreational vessels. If it floats, we can lift it.
- Pre-Permitted and Local Code Compliant: Florida boat lift permit requirements are baked into our process. We get the paperwork done before we touch a piling.
Boat Lifts For Every Watercraft
Whatever floats your boat or board, we have a lift that keeps it clean, dry, and dockside friendly. Our systems cover everything from thrill rides to paddle-powered peace.
- V Hull, Pontoon, and Tri Toon Boat Lifts: These lifts cradle your vessel to match its shape and weight for smooth, secure lifting every time.
- Single and Dual Jet Ski Lifts: Compact and powerful, these lifts install under covered slips or next to your dock for easy access and quick getaways.
- Stacked Jet Ski Lifts: This vertical solution stores one personal watercraft above another to save dock space and reduce clutter.
- Paddleboard and Kayak Racks: Choose between fixed storage or powered racks to keep your gear off the dock and out of the water.
- Solar-Powered Lifts: For eco-conscious boaters, these lifts run on clean energy and skip the need for wired electrical hookups.
