How do I put my boat on the lift correctly?

Lower the lift until the bunks are under the surface of the water. Slowly drive your boat into the lift using the guides to center it on the bunks. Centering your boat will ensure it sits as level as can be on the lift. If centering is proving difficult, you may need to adjust your guide-ons or add them if you don’t have them. Use the bow stop or motor stop to help center your boat front to back. When using a bow stop, the boat should be touching the stop. Do not ram the bow stop, just gently touch it, so you don’t damage the stop or your boat.
