Boatyard, Marina & Boat Dealer Delivery Partner Services
AC Lifting is a HIAB partner for boatyards, marinas and boat dealers — handling boat transport, dealer handovers, seasonal lift-in/lift-out support and awkward residential boat deliveries across the UK.
What we handle
- Boat transport between yards and marinas
- Dealer deliveries — yard to customer’s lake, customer’s drive to yard
- Home-to-water and water-to-home moves for private owners
- Seasonal lift-in and lift-out overflow support
- Winter storage movements
Who this is for
Inland boatyards and marinas, coastal yards, boat dealers and brokerages, and any yard that periodically has more lifts booked than their own crane can handle.
How we handle boats
- Slinging points confirmed with the owner or yard before we lift.
- Cradle and trailer handling where the boat stays on its support.
- Insurance and paperwork ready for marina gate security.
- Experienced operators — careful, calm, no drama.
Frequently asked questions
What size boat can you lift?
Depends on weight, length and where you’re lifting from. Small runabouts, RIBs, sail and motor yachts within our lift range — all fine. Send dimensions, weight and photos of the pickup and destination and we’ll confirm.
Do you work with marina gate security and access rules?
Yes — we’ll pre-brief the yard, share driver details and insurance paperwork, and fit in with slot times. Most yards appreciate working with a HIAB partner who already understands the drill.
Can you overflow during busy seasons?
Yes — spring lift-in and autumn lift-out seasons are busy everywhere; set up a seasonal arrangement with us in advance and we’ll ring-fence capacity.
