    Hello! I’m new here. Just bought my first jet boat. I’ve been looking at them for years and bought a used SX190. I live in MA on a brackish river that goes out to Buzzards Bay. If I get approval from the board of the dock I will get a boat lift. I could use some recommendations. I’m leaning...

    Boat Hoist/Lift Weight 4000lbs

    We purchased a lift this year to use with our 2018 Yamaha 242X and used it probably around 10 times throughout the summer (less than I hoped!). When taking the boat out of the water for the season yesterday we noticed a long scratch along the keel (see attached pictures). It looks like the...

    Jet dock boat lifts

    I have a 2017 yamaha 242 limited and we are buying a house down at the Jersey shore with a dock. What has been everyone’s experience with using these drive on floating docks?
