Jarrett Backsaver Crane 500 kg

$1,903.30

The Jarrett Backsaver Crane is the purpose-built yard crane for boat owners who need to lift outboard motors, engines, heavy gear and components without risking back injury. Rated to 500 kg, it integrates directly with a Jarrett brake winch to give controlled lift and lower capability — the winch holds the load at any height, allowing hands-free positioning and attachment.

Commonly used in boat yards, garages and workshops for outboard engine removal and installation, transferring engines between boats, lifting generators and other heavy marine equipment. The folding boom and jockey wheel base make it manoeuvrable around the yard and compact for storage against a wall.

Common questions about Jarrett Backsaver Crane 500 kg

Does the 500 kg rating cover my outboard?

Almost certainly, with room spare. Most trailer boat outboards sit well under 500 kg, and the rating matters more for the awkward swing than the weight. Remember the figure is the crane, not your slab floor or the bolts you mount it through.

What do I need that is not in the box?

The winch. A Jarrett brake winch is what gives you controlled lift and lower and holds the load mid-air while you line up the bolts, and it is a separate item. Add a sling or strap rated for the engine, plus a shackle.

Will it fit in a home garage?

If you can park a trailer in there, yes. The boom folds and it rolls on a jockey wheel, so it tucks against a wall between jobs and wheels out onto the driveway when you need it. You do need level, firm ground to work on.
