Kent, Wash. – Sunstream® Boat Lifts, the leading manufacturer of premium boat lifts and the SwiftShield™ Automatic Boat Cover System, announced today the launch of the next iteration of its award-winning Helix boat lifts, the Helix2-P™. Building on the success of the original Helix-P, a piling boat lift that combines that unprecedented hydraulic speed and hidden structure for easier boarding, increased reliability and safety, the Helix2-P now includes a cable travel limiter and optional stainless steel spindles.
Just like the original Helix-P, Helix2-P was designed with high speed and a minimalist aesthetic to showcase a vessel. There are no visible motors, electrical work or gearboxes; pilings are low and there are no side beams, which opens the view to any surroundings. Because of its unique configuration, the boat does not need to be placed in the center of the lift, which means that Helix2-P can be installed with as little as a four-inch gap between the dock and boat, enabling easier and safer loading and unloading. The new addition of the Sunstream-exclusive travel limiter probe increases reliability versus rotary limit switches, and the optional stainless steel spindles are ideal for use in saltwater environments.
“A boat lift is more than a storage solution for your vessel,” said Ken Hey, CEO of Sunstream Boat Lifts. “It is a way to protect your investment while showcasing the beauty of your boat. With the improvements we’ve made to the Helix lineup, it is sure to be a vital part of your boating experience for years to come.”
With a premium frame, The Helix2-P cradle locks in the “up” position to prevent swinging in the wind, reducing cable fatigue and extending cable life. Since it does not use independent port and starboard motors, releveling is greatly reduced. Lubricated stainless steel ball bearings increase speed while decreasing noise, while also reducing friction on the torque tube.
Like the original Helix-P, the Helix2-P is Sunstream Power System (SPS) compatible, which can power multiple lifts and/or SwiftShield automatic boat covers.
