Obviously I can bite the bullet and pay the cash to have a barge come in and a huge piece of equipment with a bucket on it come in and scoop out 2 feet of dirt the entire width and length of my slip. The front I-beam of the lift hits the ground at about 3.5 to 4 feet water depth, and I need to realistically get 12" of so of dirt out - specifically, the dirt that runs the length of the I-beam, which is about 12-13 feet across. I have a dock and a 9' by 25' covered slip, but because the slip area was never dredged prior to installation of the dock and lift, and because the level of my lake fluctuates (depending on rain, evaporation, etc), I have only a narrow margin of water level until I'm permanently stuck with my boat in the lift. So I just got a quote of $1500 to dredge out 18-20" of dirt out of my boat slip, where I'm starting to have an issue getting my boat off the lift.
