Abstract: The invention relates to a bimini-style boat cover frame having electronically actuated worm gear drive units, the worm gear drive unit mounted on a boat and connected to a front frame assembly and a back frame assembly that supports a canopy covering.

Abstract: A boat lift motor, comprised of a motor, such motor driving worm gear reducer which, in turn, rotates a tubular drive shaft, such shaft having radial splines running its full length, both outside and inside; wherein the opposite end of the splined tubular drive shaft overlays a spline shaft mounted on the center axle/bolt of a boat winch; wherein the winch is rotated to wind and unwind a cable, rope, cord or chain; and wherein the engagement or disengagement of the power supply to the boat lift is initiated by an electronic controller, which opens and closes a relay upon the user's command, communicated via a handheld remote control or otherwise.
