Sante shore station

[Beetle0310]

Anyone have any insight into good shore stations for a 2011 sante 210?

120" 10,000 was what we used

I forget the width but I use a 5,000lbs lift for my 2013 210. I just make sure to get it in the water a bit before loading people onto it and make sure my ballast tanks are empty before lifting it after use.

Awesome thanks for the advice. Someone I talked to had an inboard boat on a 4500 but I dont think thats enough, looks like dry weight of my boat is almost 4200, add fuel and you're there at 4500 or more.

Agreed. I even feel like I am pushing it with the 5,000lbs and would never go lower than that. There are a few inboard ski boats on my lake with smaller lifts but that is apples to oranges. Even my old Super Sport was a much different beast than these newer (bigger and heavier) boats!

Hard to say how over engineered these things are, and it may vary by brand. I have had my 2014 g21 on a shoremaster cantilever 5,000lb lift for 2 years....zero problems. And we use it quite a bit, and lift with 3 or 4 guys in the boat.

I don't have any specific advice on shore stations, but I have some good advice on boat lifts in general.

DO NOT skimp on weight limit just to save a few hundred dollars. You will be sorry if you do. If you are buying a new lift, the difference in price of 5000# lift isn't that much more than a 10,000# lift. Always buy a little more than you think you need.

With a 10,000# you won't have to every worry about weight with your 210. You won't even have to drain the ballast. Down the road, if you decide to upgrade your 210 to a G23 your all set if you buy a 10,000# lift. If you buy a 5000# lift and get a G23 your going to have to modify your lift or buy a new lift with a higher weight limit. Either way you will wish you went with the bigger lift in the beginning.
