ShoreMaster 1200 PWC Lift

Built for PWCs and Small Lightweight Boats

The ShoreMaster 1200 is a 1,200 lb cantilever freestanding lift designed primarily for personal watercraft, Sea-Doos, WaveRunners, and Jet Skis, with enough deck width (64" inside, 92" overall) to also handle small lightweight boats up to 6 ft wide. If you need a no-fuss lift that you can install yourself and reposition seasonally, this is the model most of our PWC customers choose.

Why Owners Pick the ShoreMaster 1200

• Decades, not years. Brass pulleys and premium pivot bushings are field-serviceable and require almost no maintenance, the reason this design has been on lakes for 20+ years.
• Stainless steel cables. Won’t rust, won’t need annual replacement like galvanized cable on lower-tier lifts.
• All-aluminum frame. Light enough for two people to reposition, strong enough to overwinter on the lakebed.
• Freestanding design. Sits on its own legs, no pilings, no permits for piling installs, no dock attachment required. Drop it next to a seawall or dock and you’re done.
• Factory-direct pricing. You’re buying from Boat Lift Warehouse instead of a regional dealer, so the same ShoreMaster lift costs less and ships fast.

Is This the Right Lift for You?

This lift is the right fit if you can answer “yes” to all three:

1. Your watercraft (loaded, with fuel) weighs under 1,200 lb.
2. Your beam is under 6 ft and your hull fits inside a 64" cradle.
3. Your water depth at the dock is 24–48 inches (lift sits on the lakebed, not on pilings).

DIY Installation

The 1200 ships in a manageable number of boxes and most owners assemble it in 3–4 hours with one helper. Step-by-step installation instructions are linked below. You’ll need a basic socket set, a level, and waders. No welding, no specialty tools.
