Hurricane Boat Lifts authorized dealer badge.

Every Hurricane boat lift sells through an Authorized Dealer. This means that Authorized Dealers, located throughout the US, play an important role in the success of Hurricane Boat Lifts. An Authorized Dealer directly benefits from every sale of a high-quality American-made Hurricane lift.

HBL supports the businesses of Authorized Dealers in many ways, including through providing discounts, marketing assistance, customer support, training, and by connecting prospective buyers with Authorized Dealers through our “Find a Dealer” search on the HBL website here.

Are you an installer or boat lift dealer? If you’re considering partnering with HBL to gain access to sell and install the best American-made boat lifts, here are the four quick and easy steps to take.

Step 1: Determine if HBL is the Right Fit

Hurricane Boat Lifts provides a wide range of high-quality, American-made boat lifts. With our new Storm Series Line, we also offer affordable options on-demand for clients.

If HBL is the right partner for your business depends on the following factors:

  1. Your Customers and Location
  2. Your Company’s Needs in a Partner
  3. Your Goals as a Business

Our most successful Dealers embrace Hurricane’s mission, are responsive and open to growth, and are dedicated to quality and improving the boating adventures of their clients. Learn more about who we are here.

Step 2: Contact an HBL Sales Representative

After deciding Hurricane is the right boat life manufacturer to partner with, the next step is to contact Hurricane Boat Lifts to speak with one of our Sales Representatives. During the call, we will learn about your company, goals, staff, and needs. You will have the opportunity to ask questions, learn about our processes, and start the process of becoming an Authorized Dealer.

Step 3: Apply

If there is a mutual fit with our companies, you will receive an application. The application will solidify your intent to become an Authorized Dealer and give Hurricane administrators the information necessary to begin processing the partnership.

Step 4: Submit Requested Materials

During the application process, you will be asked to submit requested materials and information to confirm items on the application. When this information is received and processed, official onboarding can begin, and our partnership will become official.

Onboarding is quick and easy. HBL is currently developing an updated Dealer Manual, and we provide ongoing Dealer support, training, and calls with Dealers.

We are looking to expand our network of Authorized Dealers throughout the US and beyond! Partner with Hurricane Boat Lifts to grow your business and to bring more to your customers. Call us today at 772-781-2556 or 888-847-3625 to get started or contact us online here.
