What is a Boat Lift Hoist Crane?
A Boat Lift Hoist Crane is a tire-mounted, mobile gantry system engineered to lift, transport, and position boats and yachts with precision. It operates using a diesel engine and hydraulic drive system, enabling smooth and reliable performance. With lifting capacities ranging from 10 to 1200 tons, it accommodates everything from small recreational boats to superyachts. Its unique "π"-shaped girder design and adjustable slings ensure optimal support and adaptability to various vessel types.
Structural Framework
The crane features a rubber-tired gantry structure with a "π"-shaped frame, allowing it to straddle lifting pools and accommodate tall vessels like sailboats. Its four adjustable slings provide flexible support, while the hinged main and end beams enhance stability on uneven ground. The integration of mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic systems ensures seamless operation across various conditions.

Key Advantages and Features
1. Enhanced Safety and Reliability
- Constructed with high-strength materials and integrated safety mechanisms.
- Capable of handling up to 120% of the rated load, preventing overload incidents.
- Soft, durable lifting belts protect yacht surfaces from scratches or damage.
2. Exceptional Mobility and Control
- Supports multiple steering modes: straight-line, diagonal (45°), 90° turning, and on-the-spot rotation.
- Wireless remote control enables precise maneuvering and positioning.
3. Robust Performance
- Powered by a diesel-hydraulic system for consistent operation.
- Lifting speeds: 0–2 m/min (full load); travel speeds: 0–30 m/min (with load) or 0–40 m/min (unloaded).
4. Adaptability to Terrain
- Functions on concrete, gravel, and uneven surfaces, with a slope-climbing capability of up to 4%.
- Hinged beam design compensates for ground irregularities, minimizing structural stress.
5. Wide Lifting Capacity and Synchronization
- Multi-point lifting system ensures balanced force distribution and synchronized operation.
- Adjustable main girder width and independent lifting points cater to diverse yacht shapes.
6. Cost-Effectiveness and Low Maintenance
- Economical operational costs and durable components reduce long-term expenses.
- Simplified maintenance procedures enhance usability.
