A floating lift includes a fixed frame, a movable frame, and a platform coupled to the movable frame. A float that may include multiple float sections is coupled to the fixed frame to provide buoyancy to the lift. A lifting assembly is structured to move the movable frame to change a position of the platform relative to the fixed frame over a range of travel between a raised position and a lowered position. A vehicle can be loaded on the lift in the lowered position and elevated to the raised position to avoid damage to the vehicle. The range of travel of the platform is greater than a length of a lifting arm of the movable frame and the lifting assembly includes a locking link to lock the lift in the raised position. The lift may also include a leveling assembly that assists with uniform movement of the movable frame.
