HELIX-P

Performance that’s out of sight.

SPEED

Launch your boat in
as little as 15 seconds.

NO SWAY
IN WIND

Cradle secured
when up.

SUBTLE
DESIGN

Look at your boat,
not your lift.

  • INNOVATION

    Sunstream has completely reimagined what a piling lift should be, by combining unprecedented hydraulic speed with an attractive hidden structure to create a lift that delivers easier boarding, increased reliability and safety, reduced noise and launching / lifting speeds as fast as 15 seconds. Helix-P™ is an invitation to go boating more often and have more fun!

     

  • PREMIUM FRAME

    The Helix-P cradle locks in the "up" position to prevent swinging in the wind, reducing cable fatigue and extending cable life. Since it does not use independent port and starboard motors, releveling is greatly reduced. Lubricated stainless steel ball bearings increase speed while decreasing noise, while also reducing friction on the torque tube. Sunstream's unique rubber capped aluminum Superbunks™ provide durable yet soft cushioning to protect and support your hull. Helix is constructed of a thick marine grade aluminum structure to provide superior stiffness; and stainless steel hardware to prevent corrosion. The frame has non-slip striping on top for safety and appearance, and optional Storm Surge Inserts can be added quickly to raise your boat an additional 24".

  • HIGH PERFORMANCE HYDRAULICS

    The unique Sunstream Power System (SPS™) system enables users to select a hydraulic DC powerpack of 6hp or 12hp, which can create a system that is approximately 12x faster than typical piling lift speeds. SPS also provides a backup power source for enhanced reliability with sealed non-maintenance batteries; and single powerpacks can be shared among multiple Sunstream lifts or SwiftShield Automatic Boat Cover Systems to provide a cost-effective, less cluttered power solution. Unlike other piling lifts, Helix can be plugged in to an extension cord, with only 6A of 110V power (3a of 220V for international customers); and does not require 220V power mounted on the lift or routed underwater, for added safety and reliability.

  • OPEN VIEWS AND EASIER BOARDING

    Helix-P was designed with a minimalist aesthetic to showcase your trophy. There are no visible motors, elecrical work, or gearboxes; and pilings are low and there are no side beams, which opens up your view. Because of its unique configuration, Helix-P can be installed with as little as 5 inches gap between your dock and boat, which means easier and safer loading and unloading.

  • TECHNOLOGY

    The Helix-P advanced control system adds to the excitement and fun of boating. The smartphone app enables the lift to be controlled from a smartphone so your remote is always with you. This high-speed lift accelerates and decelerates multimotor powerpacks for smooth operation and a double click feature brings to the boat to predetermined stops so it's customized to your dock. A reliable encoder revolution counter inside the motor eliminates the need for vulnerable and unreliable limit switches, and enables multiple intermediate stopping points for the ultimate in user control.
