Features and Information on Rail Mount Davits
Our sail systems are adjustable at any time, by merely loosening a rail bracket and sliding it on the rail to a new chosen location. No other system has this feature while retaining so much lateral support. All our systems are shipped with slings custom made to fit your dinghy. In most cases they are manufactured from white vinyl coated stainless lifeline cable, with the ends finished in stainless thimbles and carbines. Where nicro press sleeves are used, we use zinc plated ones that will give a consistent quality appearance.These systems have been engineered to offer the most in strength, appearance and performance.
