How did you determine that because someone has a lift they don't have good boating skills?

What if you didn't want to deal with: dock whips, fenders, substantial lines whenever possible because there is an easier way? I watch my next door neighbor mess with all of those things for 1/2 hour after every time he takes his boat out.

Why do you assume that because someone has a boat lift at their home port that they don't repeatedly dock in other places and use and improve all of their skills?

Isn't it safer for you and your passengers to get in an out of a boat that is not bouncing, if you have that option?

Wouldn't you like it if your boat did not pick up a scum line on the hull that has to be cleaned annually and eventually becomes "permanent"?

Wrestle with a boat lift? In some situations that is not necessary at all. Some people on Winnipesaukee have boat lifts that can stay in place all year long. Think a little bigger!
