L300 Lift
[Some of the information below also applies to the XL500 lift. For ease of reading, the relevant information is replicated on the XL500 webpage]
Available in both “F” (Fixed) and “R” (Rails) System
The L300 Lift is a compact and versatile solution designed for boats ranging from 9.5 to approximately 12.5 meters LOA. It accommodates tenders, dinghies, or jet skis with a working weight under 300 kilograms. This lift features a 12-volt electric motor ram system, and the R system is customizable to meet individual needs. Customers can specify the rail length prior to ordering, with options available in 900mm, 1100mm, 1300mm, and 1500mm sizes.
Difference between the ‘R’ and ‘F’ Types
- The F series version of the L300 is particularly advantageous as it can often be installed on an existing swim platform or marlin board without requiring additional or stronger supporting brackets. It is crucial that owners verify this requirement before ordering. This verification should ideally be checked with the marine workshop performing the installation, the boat manufacturer, or a qualified boat builder.
- The R series allows the tender or jet ski to be moved inward and secured close to the transom while underway.
- This inward positioning enhances the ride stability, improves the overall balance, and protects the tender or jet ski from wake waves or stern waves in following seas.
Why Use Rails?
Rails are not essential for launching or retrieving a tender or jet ski. Their primary purpose is to move the tender or jet ski closer to the transom after storage. This ensures the boat’s center of gravity is better balanced and is not too far aft when the lift is installed, and the tender or jet ski is stored on the platform.
The L300 is ideal for boats that may be sensitive to carrying too much weight on the stern or whose owners use a lighter dinghy or tender, i.e., tenders generally having no centre console and use a smaller/lighter outboard motor.

The L300 lift is suitable for transporting smaller jet skis such as a Sea-Doo Spark
The chocks for carrying a jet ski are supplied/fitted at the time of order.
Costs [2025]
L300 F: EUR10,506.00/USD12,051.00 (approximately AU$17,500.00 – Jan 2025) excluding DHL or equivalent airfreight delivery costs, import duties and taxes and broker’s clearing fee (if applicable).

Delivery Costs, Import Duties, Taxes & Broker’s Clearing Fee
The costs of the L300 Lift vary depending on individual orders. All units are shipped directly to customers from Sweden using DHL or an equivalent airfreight service. A firm delivery charge will be provided to each customer before an order is placed.
Upon the goods’ arrival in Australia, import duties, taxes (if applicable), and broker’s clearing fees (if applicable) will be determined. These charges are the purchaser’s responsibility and are additional to the quoted lift costs. Customers are also responsible for clearing the goods through customs, either personally or with the assistance of a customs clearance broker. DHL or other international couriers will generally clear the goods for you, subject to you paying the calculated duties, etc., which can be done on-line.
As a guideline for Australian customers, GST (10%) is calculated on the total of the following:
- The invoice price of the goods.
- The transportation cost to ship the goods to Australia.
- The insurance cost for goods in transit.
- Any import duties payable on the goods.
If a licensed customs broker is engaged to handle the clearance of goods through customs, their fee typically ranges between $300 and $400.
