History of Presto XL500
A man asked about how i came up to the solution of Presto XL500! and we told him:We'll Our hydraulic tender lifts are manufactured in the country that invented safe cars, and Scandinavian design… Sweden. Not just Sweden, but northern Sweden, Lapland, mostly populated by elk, reindeer, bear, and a few hardy but ingenious Viking descendants who enjoy boating when the ice has melted and snowmobiling the rest of the year. There is very little time for boating near the Arctic circle, which is the reason why the product Presto PWC/Tender lift was invented here. With a Presto Marine hydraulic lift, in less than 60 seconds, a PWC, Waverunner or Tender can be launched from the water without you getting wet, an important fact considering that the water temperature is rarely much warmer than 16 degree Celsius. Which is not entirely true but it could… the true history is.

In September 2010
Mikael was selling Rib boats at a boat exhibition in Stockholm, when a salesman from Nimbus came and asked if Mikael was the guy who makes hydraulic dinghy lifts. After some discussion Mikael found out that the product which his daughter had invented was not good enough because of the weight of the PWC, so he told the guy “YES it’s me, and I’m working on a new product but I can’t show it right now.” He went back to his office and after some research on boat forums, he realized that people discussed lifting a heavier PWC / Waverunner on to the swim platform of bigger boats, but there was no good solutions to the problem. On the market there was only one hydraulic dinghy lift in the form of a swim platform, which could be submerged into the water and used to lift heavy PWC.Started to design a solution
