Hydraulic Cantilever

The Perfect Low-Water Lift Offering Effortless Operation

Imagine pressing a button on a key-fob remote control as you walk to your dock and having your boat in the water and ready to go when you arrive. That’s the convenience and sophistication you get with a Hewitt hydraulic cantilever lift. Based on our standard cantilever design, these lifts can rest dockside in as little as 24” of water, perfect for use with shorter docks. Available in 3900 lb and 5200 lb capacity models. Hewitt hydraulic boatlifts are the shallowest boatlift in the industry since 2001 operating with water levels only 6” deep.

Frame Components

The corrosion-resistant, all-aluminum frame includes two full-length adjustable bunks, keel protector and four 3’ adjustable-height leveling legs with stainless steel quick-release pins. Aluminum and welds are covered by an exceptional 15-year warranty. Four optional conversion kits available for pontoon boats.

FEATURES

Hydraulic Pump, Control System and Chest

Hydraulic systems are available for use with 220V AC or 12V and 24V DC power supplies. The average run time to lift a boat 38-1/2” is 63 seconds. Comes standard with two key-fob remote controls and a locking, water-resistant chest. The chest can neatly house the battery (not included) for a DC system. Options include a solar cell battery charger and space-saving pump chest stand.

External Filter

Particle contamination of hydraulic oil reduces the service life of hydraulic components. This external filter is key to keeping your hydraulic oil clean and pump running smoothly without having to remove the reservoir to access the in-tank filter found on all competitor pumps.

Hydraulic Cylinders

Sealed twin hydraulic cylinders feature triple chrome-plated shafts, waterproof synthetic hose and biodegradable hydraulic fluid. The cylinders are mounted on double reinforced uprights and pivot on large torsion pins (not bolts). In the lift’s up position, the cylinders are raised completely out of the water.
