[C320-list] Dinghy Davits

[Earl Engelmann]

I’m not sure it is what you are looking for but I installed Weaver snap davits on our 320 “Bellezza” a couple of years ago. I got the idea from a technical article posted in 2011.
Has its pros and cons but we are very happy with it. Quick and easy to launch, holds the dinghy securely to the boat when mounting the outboard and compact storage out of the water.
Check out the article... “C320 snap davit installation”

Anybody recently installed Dinghy davits on their C320?  Just starting to look around.  Ours is 1998.
What brand names Gauher others?? part numbers even better...  Catalina Direct have options?
Have not looked at our local marina to see what they would recommend or do......
I know the pros and cons.  May do some long range cruising in the next couple of years and evaluating davits.  Admiral doesn't like towing dinghy.  More pros than cons right now but open to thoughts.....
Thanks,
