Free inspection and a written scope.
Boat covers
A boat cover must meet the boathouse rules or fit tightly around the boat.
Why it matters
After Ian
Lifts on Estero Island went under in water 10 to 15 feet above ground in 2022. Any lift still in service from then deserves a full teardown of the gearbox and a new set of cables.
Replacing a lift needs a Town permit, and lifts follow the same reach as docks: 25% of the channel width, up to 200 feet (Sec. 26-71). Setbacks run 25 feet on natural water and 5 feet on canals.

You get a written scope and estimate. No obligation, no trip fee.
- On-site assessment of the structure and surrounding soil
