Maumee River Docks and Lifts

The Maumee River is a 137 mile link between the Mississippi River system and the Great Lakes. While the mouth of the river at Lake Erie in Toledo, Ohio is wide and supports considerable commercial traffic, about 12 miles upstream near the town of Perrysburg the river becomes shallower and supports only recreational navigation above that point. Whether wading in the river as a participant in the famous Maumee River Walleye Run, boating, canoeing or kayaking, the Maumee River provides an excellent balance of recreational capabilities with the natural world. Maumee River docks and lifts by Metal Craft aim for you to get more enjoyment from your river experience by providing you with aluminum boat docks and lifts that require minimal maintenance and decades of hassle free use!

Maumee River Docks

Due to the unpredictability of Mother Nature and the sometimes drastic water level variations on the Maumee River, Metal Craft Heavy Duty Floating Docks provide worry free enjoyment. Metal Craft provides both Residential and Commercial Heavy Duty Floating Docks. Both systems come in four widths, three different lengths, and are available in 22” high or 26” high freeboards. Due to the degree of customization involved in configuring a Heavy Duty Floating Dock system, we strongly recommend working with our experienced Metal Craft Dealer, Riverview Watersports Marine, to develop a system to best fit your needs. Our Heavy Duty Floating systems are currently installed at the City of Perrysburg, Perrysburg Boat Club, Maumee Bay State Park and many residential sites along the Maumee River.

Maumee River Lifts

If you want to enhance your river experience Metal Craft offers boat lifts to accommodate weights up to 5,000 lbs. and PWC lifts to accommodate up to 1200 lbs. Metal Craft boat lifts feature all aluminum frame construction with adjustable legs for deeper water and a deep “V” design for shallow water access to the lift.  Standard features include aircraft quality stainless steel cables, nylatron GSM pulleys, and yellow zinc coated fasteners.  Available accessories include an electric winch upgrade, boat lift canopy, side guide and bunk upgrades and many other options.  Call Riverview Watersports Marine to discuss your boat lift or PWC lift needs.
