VersaDock V-Lift System for Large Boats

For heavier boats or boats with I/O drive units that do not trim up past the bottom of the hull, VersaDock offers the V-Lift line of boat docks. The V-Lift
is an air assist system that uses a buoyancy tank mounted below the VersaDock and has a small pump system to pump air into the tank to raise the
stem of the boat

Installing the V-Lift

The V-Lift is installed on a typical VersaDock boat dock that
is fully assembled and in the water.

The V-Lift comes with 2 aluminum C-channel pieces bolted
to it and 2 4x4 Aluminum angle beams that are pre meas-
ured and drilled to be mounted to the Tank.

When bolting the angle beams to the tank, make sure that
they are oriented so that the distance between the beams
is 19". This ensures that they fit up between the floats they
are mounted to.

 

> The V-lift is shipped with the bronze intake fitting installed and coated
with 3M 5200 to ensure an airtight fit as shown.

>» Take one end of the supplied hose and put it on the bronze fitting and
use the 2 hose clamps supplied

> Make sure the hose is secure on the fitting. The picture to the side
shows the hose while it is being fitted—not the end result.

» ith the hose secure and the beams securely bolted to the tank, it is
now ready to be put into the water.

> The tank will quickly fill with water so make sure you have a few guide
lines attached and slide the tank into the water. The fitting is oriented to be
towards the bow of the dock when mounted.

The tank is bolted to the ster of the dock like the instructions for the support beam. The tank is typically bolted to the 5th
float from the stern and thus the tank is under floats 4,5,6 from the stern.

To finish the installation, run the hose along the side of the dock and up to the pump box.

Install the other end of the hose to the fitting in the pump box and use 2 hose
clamps to securely fasten like with the tank.

To operate, turn on the pump, open the ball valve and air is put into the tank.
Wren the dock is at the proper position, close the ball valve and turn off the pump.

When ready to drive the boat off, open the ball valve and water will force the air
out of the tank and the stem will lower into the water to enable an easy drive off.
