| Ridgeline boatlifts are designed to accommodate the needs of today’s boater not yesterday’s. Ridgeline boatlifts are produced using materials that will not break down by the atmosphere around them. We all know that aluminum will not rust and is a lighter alternative for install and removal (that is a given). Some brands will flatter you with fancy words like all stainless steel hardware (that appears to be a value) but research studies show us that two different metals put together will create a galvanic process called electrolyses and will break down the aluminum within time. This is why Ridgeline utilizes a process called RIE coating, which is Teflon applied to all the hardware (which is used in the automobile, stern drives and cattle trailer industries). The aluminum and RIE hardware will allow a lifetime of smooth operation and prevent the galvanic process. Ridgeline does not hold back on any model size for smooth operation, all pivot bushings and pulleys use cast nylon that is more forgiving to cable wear and will lubricate itself for smoother operation, other brands use aluminum pulleys with brass sheave bushings. Our experience has been that these pulleys will wear the cable faster and that the brass bushing will need to be replaced periodically for the lift to function for a long period of time. Today’s trends show people are purchasing larger boats and require larger capacity boatlifts, to accommodate this trend, most brands are adding extra material to increase the strength of their product. Ridgeline utilizes heat-treated aluminum extrusions that provide beam strength for the capacity that is needed. This not only makes our lifts stronger but also improves the fit and finish. Ridgeline also makes it easier to attach most accessories onto your lift capacity 3500 and larger, with the exclusive full-length channel and a simple nut and bolt. All other brands utilize cumbersome attachment brackets that are difficult to assemble and add to the cost of their product. The most important of all is that all brands say they are the best and they should but really what are they doing to convince you, the buyer? Ridgeline simply has the proof in how we build our product. Ridgeline has raised the bar with a LIFETIME WARRANTY on structure and workmanship. (Please see full warranty) When purchasing your next boatlift, please consider Ridgeline. We are doing what it takes to earn your business! |

| Finally, there is a leg pad that makes sense. These leg pads are equipped on Ridgeline lifts, 3500-pounds or larger. This leg pad will find its way to the hard lake bottom instead of resisting its’ way down. It is also easier to pull out of the muck, sand, silt or whatever types of lake bottom that you may have. This leg pad can also be rotated 180 degrees, allowing it to move in any direction. The leg pad also pivots to match the angle of the lake bottom. No need to worry about bent or broken leg pads with a Ridgeline boatlift! | Boatlifts 3500-pounds and larger come equipped with a leveling spring pin adjustment lever that is located on each leg. When in operation the pin will automatically spring into the next adjustment hole up or down while leveling your Ridgeline boatlift. Other brands utilize a quick pin that is very difficult to align the holes, when lift is in the water. | All Ridgeline’s 3500-pound or larger boatlifts come equipped with a 6-spoke 47” service wheel. The PWC lift and the 2000-pound boatlift are equipped with a 36” service wheel. All wheels are made of mechanical steel that is 1-1/2” OD for the perimeter, 1” spokes and is powder coated. This wheel was designed to keep its’ shape, color and spin easier compared to other brands that use smaller lighter materials. |

| Bunks and accessories attach onto the bed beam or side frame base with ease. Double T-slots allow accessories, cradles and bunks to be attached with a bolt and a nut, instead of cumbersome u - bolts or fabricated mounting brackets. This feature exists on the 1BL3500108 and the 1PL3500120 bed beam. The 1VBL4000120, 1VBL5000120, and 1VBL6000120 have this feature on the bed beam as well as the side frame. This is an exclusive feature that Ridgeline offers; no other brand offers this wonderful feature! | All Ridgeline boatlifts utilize a double gusset bolt-together plate system; other brands use a single gusset. The bolt- together process is stronger and allows for a hassle free system, if damages would accrue. Compared to other brands that weld their lift. | All Ridgeline cantilever boatlifts come with a cast nylon-bushing pivot. This allows for an easier working lift and eliminates pivot wear, unlike brands that only pivot off of the thickness of the aluminum. |
