Boat Hoist

The Redondo Beach Marina, BOAT HOIST is one of only a handful of public hoists along the California coastline. It is the choice of many boaters who prefer the convenience of having a skilled Redondo Beach Marina, operator launch their boat mechanically and safely via slings. 

The Boat Hoist is a mere 100 yards from the harbor entrance and open ocean, and the Redondo Canyon begins a few hundred yards outside the breakwater. Rocky Point and the kelp beds off Palos Verdes are popular fishing grounds within minutes of King Harbor. At various times of the year, fishermen can pursue halibut, rockfish, sculpin, seabass, bonito, barracuda, and yellowtail.

Hoist your jet skis and private fishing boats for a day in the sun at the Redondo Beach Marina Boat Hoists. Two 5 ton hoists make it easy and quick to be on the Pacific in no time flat.

Hand launch for your personal hand-carried watercraft is available at the Redondo Beach Marina,. Enjoy a day in the sun with your whole family.
