Title: Inflatable Davits
Post by: Ken Juul on May 29, 2001, 08:12:07 AM
Just purchased a 9.2 Seaworthy from Boat US, got a used Nissan 5hp.  Having a great time motoring around the harbor.  Marina's a bit tight on space.  Not really room to keep the inflatable floating behind the boat, and the shore storage racks are a pain to put the dink up after every weekend.  Considering stern davits.  Saw the example on the projects page, looking for opinions on which is the best brand to go with and of course best place to purchase.  Happy sailing.

We installed Kato Davits, they fit well and are extremely well made. They use 1 1/4 DIA stainless tubing instead of the normal 1" DIA. They can be purchesed directly from Kato Marine. Suggest you check out their website.
