Abstract

A boat hoist has a frame with forward part including spaced upright posts, a rearward part including spaced upright posts, spaced to permit the passage of a boat therebetween, and an inclined track assembly attached to the frame between the pairs of spaced upright posts, a boat platform mounted for movement up and down of the track assembly, means for moving the boat platform upward along the track assembly, means for moving the boat platform downward along the track assembly, and means for holding the platform at a lower position and at an upper position on the track assembly. The hoist requires much less effort to lift and lower a boat because of the inclined plane and provides a convenient safer means of removing the boat from the water.
