KEY LARGO, FLORIDA
Boat Lift Repair Key Largo
Boat lift repair in Key Largo keeps elevator lifts 7.5 feet from side lines and davits at least 5 feet, or the principal-structure setback if greater (Monroe County LDC Sec. 118-12).
We connect Key Largo owners with licensed marine contractors who service lifts.
Free inspection and a written scope.
Depth
Lifts and moored vessels may not sit in less than 4 feet of water at mean low water. Floating lifts also stay off seagrass and out of manatee zones.
After Irma
Lifts that went under in 2017 can fail years later from salt in the gearbox. Personal watercraft lifts of 1,500 pounds or less keep 5 foot setbacks.
Why it matters
Four-post lifts
Four-post hoists and cradle lifts are allowed only on parcels at least 70 feet wide on manmade waterways at least 60 feet wide, with 7.5 foot setbacks.
