Floating Docks Ideal for

Hurricane Damaged Boat Dock

Jet Dock survives where others fail

Storm-condition waters present unique challenges for boat lifts and boat docks. Unlike conventional, constructed boat lifts which are hard-fastened to your property, your Jet Dock floating boat lift is a portable structure that is tied-up at your location.

 

 

With an impending storm or hurricane, simply untie your Jet Dock and spring-tie it freely to ride out the winds, waves and flooding.

 

During these storm conditions, the waters rise, tearing apart stationary docking structures and boat lifts. A boat which remains on these lifts can be destroyed. No boat lift or boat dock is completely impervious to mother nature, but your Jet Dock boat lift and boat dock stands that greatest chance of survival. It "gives" and floats with the tempest, not trying to fight it, and often comes out unscathed.

The Owner's Manual (PDF) instructs all customers to remove their boat from the water with the approach of a severe storm. But, in case you get caught unaware or are unable to move your boat from harm's way, we believe your Jet Dock boat lift gives you the best chance of minimizing the loss of your craft. Heaven knows that in the past several years our US East Coast, Caribbean, Latin American and Asian customers have had quite a few chances to test out this theory!

 

A severe storm or hurricane is a serious and devastating situation. When choosing a boat dock or boat lifting device, keep in mind the floating, portable system that works with Mother Nature, not against her. Choose Jet Dock!
