Hello. I could not find any threads where members were discussing hydraulic lifts. I just moved onto a river and I upgraded from a '91 Malibu DD to a '12 XLV. I have my eye on a new hydraulic cantilever boat lift. The specs for the lift I am looking at are this: 4800#,2 Hydraulic cylinders, 10' bunks, 41" lift height. All this for $5500 brand new. Has anyone seen or used a hydraulic lift like this before? It is made by Feighner.

The dry weight for the '12 XLV is only 3600# but I have read that it is likely more than that and I will have gear in there as well. Is there a thread on here were members are talking about what capacity lifts they are using. a 5800# lift is $7700 because it has 4 hydraulic cylinders. I am hoping to save $2200 by getting the 4800# lift.
