Whatever tournament you decide to enter, make sure your boat is tournament ready with a clean hull and prop. This ensures you can cut through the water to get to the best fishing locations. To be prepared this year we suggest investing in a floating boat lift for your watercraft. Our boat lifts will give your more time on the water to practice and less time cleaning and preparing your boat for the upcoming fishing competitions.
