Our low-maintenance elevator lifts are built and serviced locally in Camdenton. We offer new and used boat lifts, jet ski docks, PWC lifts, and dock accessories so you get the right solution for your slip. Our shallow-water models operate in as little as 24 inches (best-case on the 4,000 lb unit), while our side-mount and forward-lifting designs handle rough water and tight slips with ease.
Whether you need a floating boat lift that rises and falls with the water or a shallow-water system that stays usable during drawdowns, LOTO Lift delivers long-lasting protection built for real Lake of the Ozarks use.
We build the strongest side-mount boat lifts for the rough waters of Lake of the Ozarks. The LT “Lifetime” Model uses a heavy-duty galvanized frame and parallel poly tanks that keep steel out of the water, so it holds up to wake, wind, and heavy boat traffic better than lighter designs. Available in multiple arm configurations and capacities up to 30,000 lb.
Our Shallow Model pneumatic floating boat lifts are built for low-water coves and seasonal drawdowns at Lake of the Ozarks. The 4,000 lb model operates in a true 24 inches of water in the best-case scenario (bass boats and other small pleasure boats). Larger sizes use taller tanks and need more water.
The TR Model “The Rock” is our forward-lifting pneumatic boat lift built for tight or short slips. Unlike traditional lifts that pull the boat backward, it glides forward up to 24–25 inches as it rises so the whole boat — including the swim platform and outboard — sits fully under the cover. Parallel poly tanks keep steel out of the water for less corrosion and longer life.

Our single and dual PWC platform lifts are pneumatic floating solutions for Jet Skis, WaveRunners, and Sea-Doos. The dual platform uses composite decking custom-fit to your slip and keeps steel above the waterline. Ideal for Lake of the Ozarks conditions — rough wakes, fluctuating levels, and zebra mussels.

Are boat lifts worth the cost?
A new boat hoist or PWC lift can add great convenience to your boating experience and lake fun. A boat lift (also called a lake lift), is designed for a number of reasons. It reduces wear, keeps the hull clean, and protects from rough water while in a dock’s boat slip. On top of all of that, it is convenient for accessing out-drives and repairing the prop, swim deck, or the hull of a boat.
Most inland vessels are constructed of a fiberglass hull that is sealed with a gel coat or an epoxy paint that provides adequate protection for the fiberglass. However, prolonged saturation from sitting in water will affect byproducts formed in the hardening process. This turns them into acids that break down the bond between the fiberglass reinforcing and the resin.
Power boats have precision parts and drives that must be kept clean for performance and durability. With zebra mussels and marine growth, it would be impossible for the watercraft to run correctly with water ports, jets, and drives clogged. Plus, when you add electrolysis into the equation, the odds of permanent damage are high.

Boat Lifting: Why We Sell Floating Boat Lifts
Boat lifting is essential to boating, at least if you want to make it more convenient and easy to dock your boat. Choosing the right method for your vessel is crucial. Regarding boat lifting, we believe that floating boat lifts are the way to go for most lakes!
Boat owners explore various kinds of lift systems like vertical lifts, pontoon lifts, boat house lift options, aluminum boat lifts, and cradle lifts. Many of these elevator lift systems are required to be pile-mounted. However, most discover that our floating lift systems for watercraft storage are preferable to pile-mounted systems when located on a lake or river where the water level fluctuates. Floating elevator lifts at Lake of the Ozarks are the perfect marriage with your floating dock given the extreme changes in water levels throughout the year.
Our floating lift systems are immensely popular among watercraft owners who want an efficient and safe way to lift their vessels out of the water. Lifting a boat can be daunting, but with the right equipment, it doesn’t have to be. With a floating boat lift, you can enjoy a stress-free experience that will keep your boat in top condition.
One of the most significant advantages of using a floating boat lift is that it is incredibly user-friendly. Other traditional methods of boat lifting can require being pile-mounted on your dock’s pilings or may require dedicated pilings to support watercraft storage.
Additionally, they may need specialized equipment and expertise for installation and maintenance, which will cost more money. On the other hand, floating boat lifts are easy to use and require minimal effort. They are designed to be simple and straightforward, making them an excellent choice for anyone who wants to lift their boat without any hassle.
Our side-mount and wide-tank designs work especially well for wide slip boat lifts where stability matters. Parallel poly tanks create a broad, stable footprint that resists rocking from wake and wind, keeping your boat secure even in rougher coves at Lake of the Ozarks.
Another reason why floating boat lifts are so popular among boat owners near lakes or rivers in the United States is that they are incredibly versatile. They can be used for a wide variety of vessels, from small dinghies to large pontoons, deck boats, and cabin cruisers. A floating boat lift will work for you no matter your pleasure boat’s size. This versatility makes them an excellent investment for anyone who plans to own multiple boats over the years.
Floating boat lifts are also incredibly durable and long-lasting. LOTO Lifts are made from high-quality and industry standard materials that are designed to withstand the harsh marine environment. Furthermore, the design keeps the metal above the waterline which is a necessity to avoid rust and corrosion.
Whether you live in a saltwater or freshwater environment, you can trust that your floating boat elevator will last for years to come. This durability makes them an excellent investment for anyone who wants to protect their vessel from damage caused by prolonged exposure to water.
Floating boat lifts are designed to adjust and adapt to changing water levels. Our lifts rely on buoyancy and an electric pneumatic system to raise and lower the boat. Since it floats, as the water level changes, the unit will automatically adjust its height to keep your vessel level and stable. This ensures that the boat stays safe and secure while also avoiding damage to the lift or the dock. Overall, a pneumatic boat elevator lift is a cost-effective solution for adapting to fluctuating water levels, making it a popular choice among watercraft owners.
Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between a floating boat lift and a fixed boat lift?
A floating boat lift (pneumatic) rises and falls with the water level, so it doesn’t fight drawdowns or wakes. A fixed boat lift is mounted to piles or the bottom and stays in one place, which can leave the boat too high or too low when Lake of the Ozarks water levels change.
How shallow can a LOTO Lift operate?
The 4,000 lb Shallow Model can operate in a true 24 inches of water in the best-case scenario with a bass boat or other small pleasure boat. Larger models use taller tanks and need more water.
How long does it take to get a boat lift installed for spring 2027?
Lead times vary by model and inventory, but many customers are already booking spring 2027 installs. Call (573) 873-6058 or contact us for current availability on your slip and boat.
Do your lifts work in rough water at Lake of the Ozarks?
Yes. Our LT Model side-mount lifts are built specifically for rough water with a heavy-duty frame and parallel poly tanks that keep steel out of the water. They handle wake, wind, and heavy boat traffic better than lighter designs.
