• Typically manufactured with 1- or 2-ply nylon
• Used for lifting smaller recreational boats, canoes, kayaks, etc.

• Available in up to 4-ply thickness
• Used for replacement of boat lift straps for a travel lift / mobile boat hoist

The most common choice for boat slings because of its low stretch and strength retention while wet.

• About 3% stretch at lifting capacity
• Maintains 100% of working load limit when wet

Less common because of its higher stretch and decreased load capacity when wet.

• Stretches 6 - 8% at lifting capacity
• Loses ~15% working load limit when wet

Both polyester and nylon slings are available in widths as narrow as 2" and can be up to 8" wide. Wider slings offer more surface area at the contact points. Slings are made to length based on your lifting requirements.

Extra eyes allow for adjustability for lifting smaller boats. They can be placed strategically to allow more versatile, easier lifts.

Allows for easier removal of the sling. Pin hardware is hot dip galvanized for corrosion resistance.

A chine sleeve (AKA boat pad) helps protect the sling and boat during the lift. Available with and without velcro, these sliding pads can be positioned to fit any size or style of boat and are made of the same material as the sling.

A keel pad is a sleeve of extra webbing placed in the center to help protect the sling from cutting and / or abrasion during the lift. Lead weights can be sewn into the keel pad which causes the sling to sink, making it easier to position under the boat while it's in the water.

Edge guard adds additional protection to the webbing's edge, further preventing abrasion-related wear and tear over time.
