A boat lift protects your hull from growth, wakes and storms, and makes it easier to get on the water. Miniopolis LLC coordinates boat lift installation, replacement and service on Fort Myers Beach through our licensed marine contractor partners.
Marine construction is performed by licensed marine contractors in the Miniopolis partner network and coordinated by Miniopolis LLC as your general contractor.

Choosing the Right Lift
The right lift depends on your boat’s dry weight plus fuel and gear, your dock layout, water depth at low tide and how exposed the location is to wind and waves. Our partners will recommend a capacity with a safety margin and a style that fits your dock.
Lifts and Storms
Before a storm, a boat on a lift needs to be raised, secured or moved, depending on the forecast. Storms can also damage lift pilings and motors. If your lift was damaged, our partners can repair it or replace it as part of a larger dock rebuild.
FAQ
Can a lift be added to my existing dock?
Often, yes, if the dock and pilings can carry the load. Sometimes new pilings are needed.
Do lifts need permits?
Many lift installations need permits. Our marine partners handle the paperwork.
