A Davit System is always recommended if you don't already have one.

 

There's a few choices -

  • Transom
  • Boom
  • Crane
  • Snap (swimstep)

There's also systems like the Weaver Lever that will keep the motor upright when the tender is vertical.

 

Most every tender dealer will offer some type of Davit System and install it. Check out the Weaver site for more information. You can also check out ROSKELLEY / OLSSON. They build transom davit systems and are based it Seattle.

 

One thing is for sure, these systems arn't cheap, but nothing is cheap when it comes to boating and these systems make life much easier.
