Golden Boats Lifts Enhances Sea-Drive

October 4, 2019

In over 20,000 Golden Sea-Drives manufactured, not one has ever failed. While most companies would rest on their laurels with such an impressive statistic, Golden Boat Lifts didn't. Striving to continually improve its products, it enhanced its ultra-reliable drive with more torque and even greater corrosion protection.

Made in the USA, the Golden Sea-Drive still utilizes its proven double reduction worm gears so there are no chains to break or belts to slip. It's engineered so that the main gear that supports the load will never back drive, eliminating the need for unreliable electronic brakes.

While the Golden Sea-Drive has always been a low-maintenance item, it now boasts a heavier cast housing made from a new alloy for greater corrosion resistance. To improve internal component lubrication, it's packed with high-viscosity grease that won't leak from the unit, even on the hottest days. Even the bearing caps have been improved and are now 300-series stainless steel. The drive bolt is 5/8" oversized hardened steel.

First introduced in 2008, the Golden Sea-Drive is backed by a 10-year warranty.
