Everything you need to know before, during, and after installing a Sea-Legs system. Still have questions? Ask Marina any time.

Sea-Legs is a hydraulic lift system that mounts to your pontoon and lowers legs to the lake bottom, raising the boat up to six feet out of the water and holding it steady wherever you stop. Underway, the legs retract fully and stay out of the way. No anchor needed.

Sea-Legs has been on the water for over 25 years, with more than 30,000 systems installed across the U.S. and Canada. Proudly designed and built in the USA.

Sea-Legs fits most 18–30 ft pontoons. The system is optimized for 8.5'-wide decks with 25" tubes. The Twin Tube system is standard for most pontoons, and the Triple Tube system is built for tri-toons and larger platforms. Smaller setups can often be accommodated; text us a photo of your pontoon and we'll confirm the right kit.

Just about anywhere: docks, sandbars, waterfront restaurants, favorite fishing spots, and fuel stops. Pull up, lower the legs, and you're parked. No fenders, no dock lines, no anchor.

Yes. Sea-Legs works on sand, rock, and muck, with roughly 3,000 lbs of holding force per leg to keep you planted.

The standard system lifts up to 6 feet and needs about 4–5 feet of water to raise the boat clear. An extended 8-foot version is available for deeper water, about 6–7 feet.

The front and back legs can be operated independently or together — by remote or manual switch — so you can level the boat on a slope or an uneven bottom.

No. The legs retract fully and the weight is distributed evenly, so there's no drag and no impact on how your pontoon runs.

Sea-Legs runs off your standard marine battery. We recommend 850+ cold cranking amps. No second battery or extra power source is required.

No special winterization is needed. Just retract the legs fully and store your boat as you normally would.

Sea-Legs is installed by an Authorized Sea-Legs dealer. Professional installation is required to keep your warranty in force. Our installation and re-programming guides are available for reference and service.

Sea-Legs carries a two-year limited warranty when professionally installed by an Authorized dealer: parts and labor are covered in year one, and parts in year two.

Sea-Legs is sold and installed through Authorized dealers. Use our dealer locator to find one near you. Many can also demonstrate the system in person.

If you're buying a new pontoon, Sea-Legs can often be rolled into your boat financing. Your local Authorized dealer can walk you through the options.
