You need to keep the configuration of the dock in mind. When it floods high enough that we become worried about the boat our dock walkway is under water requiring you to wade through it to get to the boat on the lift. In addition to that our dock used to have a plastic outdoor sud-panel that powered the lift and had an outlet on it. If you had to lower the boat in a flood you would be standing in very cold knee deep water with a live power panel under water a few feet from your feet. We have since removed that but my point is you may have to make a choice to move it when a warning comes rather than waiting until the last hour.
