Dependable Boat Lift Wiring & Remote Installation
A boat lift makes storing and protecting your vessel simple, but it depends on safe, professional wiring and reliable controls to do its job. We’re eqipped to handle the full electrical scope of boat lift installation.

Our team also installs and services both GEM Remotes and Tec Remotes, two of the most trusted names in boat lift control systems. Whether you’re installing a new lift, replacing aging wiring, or upgrading to a remote control system, we’ll assess your setup and provide the right solution.
Signs it may be time for boat lift wiring or a controls upgrade:
- Your lift is slow to respond

- The lift doesn’t respond at all
- Need a sub-panel and hookup for new lift
Contact Veterans Electric to keep your boat lift running safely, reliably, and exactly the way it should.
Shore Power, Dock Sub-Panels, Outlets & Lighting
Dock electrical opens up a whole new level of convenience and safety on the water. For instance, shore power lets you charge your boat directly from the dock, while a sub-panel gives you the electrical capacity to run everything you need without overloading a single circuit.
Additionally, we install waterproof outlets along the dock for easy access to power wherever you need it and wire dock lighting systems. No matter what you need, we design and install solutions that match how you use your waterfront.
Reasons to add power and lighting to your dock may include:
- A dock sub-panel keeps things organized and safe
- Waterproof dock outlets put power where you need it
- Improve security and add to the beauty of your waterfront
- LED options are energy-efficient and built to withstand the elements

Essential Marine Surge Protective Device (SPD)
Your dock and boat lift system represent a significant investment, and just like your home, they’re vulnerable to electrical surges. A surge protective device (SPD) is one of the most important and overlooked steps in any dock electrical installation.
If your existing dock doesn’t have an SPD, Veterans Electric in Tarpon Springs would be happy to add this to your dock or slip.
Benefits of an SPD for your dock:
- Protects from damaging power spikes
- Extends the life of your wiring, equipment, and controls
- Satisfaction knowing your vessel & equipment are protected
- Preserves GFCIs that prevent lethal current from entering the water
Don’t leave your dock and vessel unprotected. Talk to Veterans Electric about adding a surge protective device today.
