Sunstream V-Lift at Sanctuary Cove

Award-winning boatlift on show
Superior Jetties, Queensland dealer for Sunstream Boat Lifts, will display the new Sunstream V-Lift for the first time in Australia at the Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show from May 24-27.
Launched in January this year, the V-Lift boatlift won the US National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA) Innovation Award at the 2012 Miami International Boat Show.
The V-Lift is a free-floating, compressed-air displacement boatlift that can operate in as little as one metre of water and in berths from three metres wide. Designed to be extremely fast, it can launch boats in as little as 75 seconds, lifting them again in two minutes.
Claiming to be more than twice as fast as existing air-displacement lifts, the Sunstream V-Lift uses a quad-blower and electric-valve system mounted directly on the four independent air tanks. Sunstream’s Tank Monitoring System (TMS) that fills the tanks automatically if a water-leak is detected.
Power is delivered through a low-draw DC system and options include solar and AC charging, eliminating the need for a power pack on the dock.
The dock-with-ease design is said to provide automatic centring and secure drive-on support. The V-Lift operates with level lifting, meaning the boat doesn’t need to be secured to the boatlift when lifting or launching. Further design elements for simplicity include remote control operation.
With no hard-mounts required, the Sunstream V-Lift is entirely portable. It can be used almost anywhere a boat can be moored whether marina berth, private pontoon or swing mooring.
The V-Lift is designed to be assembled by customers within half an hour and requires no tools. It can also be expanded in capacity from 3000kg to 4950kg by simply adding another pair of air tanks.
Made from rotomoulded polyethylene, the V-Lift is built for long-term durability in both fresh and salt water. More at superiorjetties.com
