We Built a Simple DIY Dinghy Davits System for our Sailboat (Boat Work: Sailing 9 LIVES)
We have to improve the way we carry our dinghy on our sailboat, 9 LIVES. So, we ordered a custom-built aluminum arch from Nautical Creations in Kentucky and added some very simple davits made from schedule 80 aluminum pipe and some stainless steel hardware. We added some nylon rope and slings plus some stainless steel block and tackle to create a 3:1 mechanical advantage, and our DIY dinghy davits system was complete! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We can't produce quality inspirational content indefinitely without the support of our fans.
