The Max Overhead Boat Sling Lift
The Max Overhead Boat Sling Lift can handle up to 12,000 lbs and features a strong top beam that’s 14 ft long, 3 1/2 in wide, and 6 in high. The top beam is made of sturdy I-beam material and has a protective galvanized finish. The drive pipe, which is 14 ft long and 2 3/8 in wide, is also galvanized and supported by sealed ball bearings. The lift uses a 2-part cable setup with stainless steel aircraft cable, each section being 50 ft long.
It operates using stainless steel A-Drives, rated at 7,000 lbs each. The gear system is efficient with a double-worm design, and the motor is a powerful 1 1/2 HP stainless steel type. Control is easy with two momentary switches that are GFCI-protected. The lift moves at a speed of 2 ft per minute and comes packaged in a wood crate. If you choose the cradle option, it includes everything needed for setup except for wood bunks. The lift is shipped via freight truck in a large wood crate and requires a fork truck for unloading. It’s important for the buyer to arrange for delivery and unloading, and the freight company can be contacted for assistance.

When choosing the cradle option, the cradle comes complete with a chock angle for two bunks, guidepost stanchions, and guideposts. All hardware is included, and the wood bunks are not included. Cable and block savers are included with the cradle to keep cable and block from going into the water. By using cradles instead of slings the overall rating of the lift becomes 12,000 lbs.
The BH-USA Max lifts ship complete in one shrink-wrapped 15ft wood crate. The Lift is shipped via a freight truck and will not be able to be unloaded without a fork truck.
It is the purchaser’s responsibility to arrange a suitable delivery location, preferably a business, and have adequate ability to unload the lift from the truck. It is not the trucking companies or BH-USA’s responsibility to unload the truck.
The freight company will contact you if requested to arrange for delivery and delivery options.
