Hydro hoist is very popular in this part of the country. I believe the company was started here on Grand Lake in Oklahoma.
We have 2 small ones for PWC's, 1 for bass boat and 1 for the "runabout". All of these are round fiberglass tanks. We also use the hydroport for PWC quick access on busy holiday weekends.
As for them being the #1 boat, IDK its the only lift I've owned so I don't know any different.
