ST. AUGUSTINE, FLORIDA
Boat Lift Installation St. Augustine
Boat lift installation in St. Augustine is limited to low-profile lifts for a single boat, or no-profile lifts, up to 12,000 pounds (Sec. 11-29).
We put St. Augustine owners in touch with licensed marine contractors who pick a lift that fits.
Free consultation, a written scope, no obligation.
No roof
Roofs and walls on docks are not allowed, so plan for an uncovered lift and a boat cover.
Approvals
The City of St. Augustine Planning and Building Division reviews the lift in the overlay, and FDEP reviews in-water work.
Size the lift to the boat’s loaded weight and keep it within the 32 foot boat limit and the 12,000 pound lift cap.
Ask for the lift’s profile height above the deck in the quote, since the city checks it against the 3 foot limit.
