now sold on over 90% of new Marine Travelift boat hoists. This option allows the operator to walk around the machine and vessel, giving them the best view without requiring the assistance of additional personnel to act as ‘spotters’. All functions of the boat hoist can be controlled from the remote and all controls are fully proportional, meaning the operator has absolute command of all functions and the controls are not just On/Off switches.

other hoist manufacturers. Whether it is just a marina or boatyard’s busy season or there is a hurricane approaching, the ability to haul more boats in a shorter period of time means increased revenue and satisfied facility operators. “With the increased speeds we offer,
along with customised options, most customers experience a faster return on investment than they originally expected,” stated Brock Rubens, Director of Sales and Marketing at Marine Travelift. This American company knows that keeping equipment running is
crucial to any operation and can be the difference in determining if a season is successful or not. This is why it has established a worldwide network of factory-trained service providers to address any issues that may arise and this is supported by an extensive inventory of OEM parts ready for shipping to where they are wanted. Marine Travelift equipment also features remote diagnostic capabilities, which allow a factory technician to remotely connect to a machine through a smartphone and identify a faulty part and/ or modify program parameters. “The remote diagnostics feature can reduce the number of site visits or eliminate the need for one altogether,” confirmed Rubens. “This maximises a machine’s uptime and, in turn, saves our customers time and money.” Marine Travelift Inc
