What are High and Dry Boat lifts?
High and Dry Boat lifts are a proprietary intellectual property designed and engineered dry boat storage solution float lifts aimed at making dry boat storage affordable and user-friendly for everyone.
How do boat lifts work?
The High And Dry boatlift works by flooding two pontoons with water to lower the lift. To raise the lift, water is displaced inside the pontoon by an air blower, raising the lift and boat.
RAISING YOUR BOAT

3. Switch on all four blower switches
4. Once bubbles appear under all four float compartments, switch off all blowers
5. Ensure the minimum waterline stripe is above the water and the float remains stationary.
TO LAUNCH BOAT
1. Attach hose pipes to the “BOTTOM” attachments of Blower House (bottom four connectors)
