Fixed Series Lifts
When considering davit systems for your dinghy, it's essential to take into account the length of your platform and the weight of your Dinghy.
It can impact your boats driving characteristics, particularly in terms of heavy-weight dinghy or jet ski storage of 300 lbs and up on platforms longer then 30 inch. Some davit systems store the dinghy or jetski completely outside of the swim platform, while our innovative “R” Rail Serie allows you to pull the dinghy in closer to the transom of the boat, significantly minimizingthe effect on your boat's performance.

Fixed or rails - which one should you choose as Davit for Dinghy?
"F" Fixed Serie Storing Outside of the Swim Platform:
Davit systems that extend the dinghy or jet ski beyond theswim platform can disrupt the boat's balance and hydrodynamics. This setupcreates an uneven weight distribution at the stern, potentially leading to astern-heavy boat. As a result, you may experience hard to get in plan, reducedfuel efficiency, compromised steering, and stability concerns, especially athigher speeds. Impacting safety, and handling can become less predictable,particularly in adverse conditions.
"R" Rail Serie, Pulling Closer to the Transom
In contrast, our Dinghy davit “R” Rail Serie is engineeredto minimize these drawbacks. By allowing you to pull the dinghy or jet skicloser to the transom, weight distribution remains more balanced, preservingthe boat's trim and stability. Consequently, your boat maintains itsperformance and handling characteristics.
In conclusion, the choice of a davit system can profoundlyinfluence your boat's driving characteristics. Opting for a system that permitsyou to pull the dinghy or jet ski closer to the transom offers numerousadvantages, including better weight distribution, improved hydrodynamics,enhanced safety, and reliable handling. These benefits contribute to a safer,more efficient, and more enjoyable boating experience.
Our recomendadtion:
