BOAT HOISTS 13
sell continues to increase, we need a lift that can handle the larger size. Our marina facility is set up to handle larger yachts as we have the capacity, slips and docks, area on the hard and service team, but until we added the new boat hoist our lift capacity was limiting us.” The Marine Travelift 85 BFMII mobile boat hoist is designed with a similar footprint to the previous 75 ton unit, making the upgrade seamless and compatible with the facility’s current infrastructure. The new acquisition offers the latest in innovation, technology and performance. In addition, Marine Travelift designed and engineered this machine based on decades of experience working with machine operators and marinas to gather their feedback and create a boat hoist with all the details that performs at the highest level. Galati’s unit is equipped with a wireless remote control, which includes convenient digital machine information readouts, a top beam extension for improved clearance for any vessel, LED lights for
visibility in all weather conditions and distinct custom Galati paint colours. “The Marine Travelift team is
always excited to work and grow with long-time customers, so we were very pleased to once again partner with Galati Yacht Sales for their newest mobile boat hoist,” said Erich Pfeifer, President & CEO of Marine Travelift. “The unique design of the 85 BFMII makes it a turnkey solution for most marinas looking to upgrade their hoisting capacity while maintaining their current piers and environment.” Another key feature that has
resulted in increased efficiency for GYS is Marine Travelift’s standard intelligent remote diagnostics. “The Bluetooth technology gives us the ability to ‘phone home’ and receive remote diagnostics from Marine Travelift’s ‘CustomerCare’ team. That has been a huge advantage for us as we hone the performance of the new lift,” agreed Mike Galati. Marine Travelift Inc

Monster hoist tested in Australia
In June, this year, the final test of the MBH 1120 mobile boat hoist was successfully carried out by its Italian manufacturer, Cimolai Technology, at the site of BSE Maritime Group Assets Pty Ltd in Cairns, Australia.
Self-powered slipway hoist
The Wise self-powered slipway hoist has been designed specifically for use on steep slipway gradients. It boasts a variable width frame to accommodate various shapes and sizes of craft. The variable frame also allows boats to be parked closer together, potentially increasing the available space on hard standing. Designed to lift, transport and
park craft in a boatyard, the slipway hoist can be employed in medium and large marinas and harbours. It is designed to handle various motor cruisers and keel vessels, but can also transport many other types of boat. It features high-mounted engine
canopy, driver’s stand and winches to prevent corrosion and there is a walkway to facilitate sling positioning and lifting. High torque drive motors allow the machine to travel up steep slipway gradients aided by high traction tyres.
