Dear Forum Members, I'm enquiring about a davit system for the stern/transom of my Beneteau Oceanis 473. In my Google search I found nothing that was suitable. The systems I did view, and which had merit, were all made in the USA. If someone could please direct me to a davit manufacturer, or an importer of davits around the Brisbane area it would be greatly appreciated. Regards, almckone.
I have used these guys before for other items , the freight will be around 500 bucks ,

either copy and paste the link above , or click on it and go to Dinghy accessories - Davits Kits
might pay to wait for the Aussie dollar to gain some strength tho.
Good davit systems do not come cheap and are usually custom made to suit you requirements. AJC Metal products at Northgate in Brisbane can build what ever you want. The owner is a great bloke with lots of ideas. I have got to say that as I own AJC Metal Products.
