NEW SMYRNA BEACH, FLORIDA
Boat Lift Installation New Smyrna Beach
Boat lift installation in New Smyrna Beach can be shared: two adjacent lots may build one facility with a lift serving up to four boats (LDR Sec. 803.04).
We put New Smyrna Beach owners in touch with licensed marine contractors who plan shared and single lifts.
Free consultation, a written scope, no obligation.
Height
The whole structure stays within 15 feet of mean high water.
Setbacks
Lifts, poles and the boats on them stay 10 feet from side lot lines and their waterward extensions.
A single slip stays under 360 square feet and a double under 600, lift included. The city manager’s plan review comes before the building permit.

Why it matters
Approvals
DEP and Army Corps first, then the city manager’s plan approval and the City of New Smyrna Beach building permit, then Volusia’s manatee review.
What a free inspection includes
A contractor comes to your property, looks at the structure above and below the waterline where needed, and tells you what is actually happening.
You get a written scope and estimate. No obligation, no trip fee.
- On-site assessment of the structure and surrounding soil
- Photos and a plain-English explanation of the problem
- Written estimate with scope and materials
- Repair versus replacement guidance where both are options
