Boat Lift Water Depth Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Water Depth (D) is:

\[ D = L + B \]

Where:

Boat Lift: A device used to raise a boat out of the water for storage, maintenance, or protection from the elements. Boat lifts come in various types, including manual, hydraulic, and electric, and can be installed in different settings such as docks, marinas, or private waterfront properties. The primary purpose of a boat lift is to keep the boat’s hull dry and free from marine growth, which can improve the boat’s longevity and performance. Additionally, boat lifts provide easy access for cleaning and repairs, making them a valuable asset for boat owners.

Let's say the lift height (L) is 2 meters and the boat draft (B) is 1.5 meters. Using the formula:

\[ D = 2 + 1.5 = 3.5 \, \text{meters} \]

So, the water depth (D) is 3.5 meters.
