AMGO 409-HPX — 9,000 lb Boat & Wide-Vehicle Storage Lift
A boat doesn't sit on a standard storage lift — the hull needs width the fixed-runway lifts don't have, and the trailer it came in on takes a bay that the boat now occupies. The AMGO 409-HPX is built for exactly that: a 9,000 lb storage lift with adjustable-width runways (46 1/2 inches narrow, 64 15/16 wide between runways) that set themselves to the hull, lifting it to 88 1/16 inches with 82 9/16 inches of clear space underneath.
It runs on a 1.0HP 110-volt motor — household-adjacent power for a 174-second storage cycle — and the whole platform is 131 7/8 inches wide with a 111-inch drive-thru, so the bay it occupies still behaves like a bay.
Who the AMGO 409-HPX Is Built For
- Boat owners storing over a second vehicle — 82 9/16" of underneath height takes a car, a golf cart, or workshop storage under the raised hull.
- Wide-vehicle storage — the adjustable runways (46 1/2"–64 15/16" between, outside edge to 104 15/16") are the spec that fits hulls, pontoon trailers, and wide bodies that fixed-runway lifts can't hold.
- Home garages and boat barns on 110V — the 1.0HP motor runs on standard power; no commercial circuit for a storage lift's rhythm.
- Buyers comparing four-post vehicle storage lifts — same platform concept, but the adjustable runways are what make the difference when the load is a boat instead of a car.
- Shops storing customers' trailers and wide equipment — 9,000 lbs covers loaded boat-and-trailer combinations that exceed passenger-car storage ratings.
What the AMGO 409-HPX Is NOT Built For
This is not a service lift — 174-second cycles and a storage platform make it a parking tool (AMGO's scissors and two-posts are the service answers). It's not for ceilings under 96 5/8" plus the raised hull, and it's not for anything over 9,000 lbs. And its width adjustment is for hulls — a vehicle-only shop gains little over a fixed four-post.
Important sizing note: measure bay length (238 1/8" with ramps), width (131 7/8"), ceiling against the 96 5/8" height plus hull, and check the underneath height (82 9/16") against what parks below before purchase.
What Makes the AMGO 409-HPX Different
Adjustable-width runways — the boat-lift spec
Between-runway width adjusts from 46 1/2" (narrow) to 64 15/16" (wide), with outside runway edges to 104 15/16" — the geometry that fits hulls and trailers.
- 46 1/2" / 64 15/16" between runways
- Outside edge to 104 15/16"
- Width set per hull
9,000 lbs with real underneath storage
The platform lifts to 88 1/16" with 82 9/16" of clearance below — enough for a vehicle or a workshop under the stored boat.
110V storage-lift economics
A 1.0HP motor on household-adjacent power running 174-second cycles — the storage lift doesn't demand commercial infrastructure.
Best For
- Boat storage over a second vehicle
- Wide hulls / pontoon trailers
- Home garages & boat barns
- 110V power
Not Ideal For
- Service-bay use (see AMGO scissors / 2-post)
- Low-ceiling bays
- Loads over 9,000 lbs

| Spec | 409-HPX (this page) | 408-HPX | 408-HLX |
|---|---|---|---|
| Capacity | 9,000 lbs | 8,000 lbs | 8,000 lbs |

| Best for | Heaviest hulls | Standard hulls | Tall underneath storage |
The 409-HPX is the capacity play; the HLX is the height play; the 408-HPX splits the difference.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions - AMGO 409-HPX
Will it actually fit a boat hull?
That's the design point — the runways adjust from 46 1/2" to 64 15/16" between (outside edges to 104 15/16"), so the platform sets its width to the hull instead of the hull adapting to the lift.
What fits underneath?
Up to 82 9/16" of clearance (79 13/16" at the storage lock) — a car, a golf cart, or workshop storage under the raised boat.
What power does it need?
110V/60Hz on a dedicated circuit — household-adjacent power; the 174-second cycle is storage-lift pace, not service-lift pace.
Is it a service lift too?
No — it's a storage lift. For service work, AMGO's scissor line and the OH-10 two-post are the right tools; we sell both.
