Alignment guide for pontoon boat lift

Abstract

An alignment guide for a pontoon boat lift that includes a pair of laterally spaced rails, where the spacing corresponds to the spacing between the pontoon floats. The rails are attached to the boat lift by adjustable brackets, so they are positioned at an elevation above the waterline of the pontoon floats, and below the deck that is supported by the floats. A stop bar is positioned at an elevation above the boat motor and extends between rail extensions that are directed downwardly and rearwardly from the spaced rails. The alignment guide functions to provide support under the deck of the pontoon boat, to limit movement of the craft from port and starboard, and to stop the craft when it has advanced to the full forward position to keep it properly positioned bow to stern.
