Choosing the Right Davit System

What to Measure and Consider Before Choosing Your Davit System

Choosing the right davit system isn't always a straightforward process. With several different systems available, finding the one that best fits your boat, PWC, and needs can feel overwhelming. That's where we come in. Our team is here to make the process as simple as possible and help you find the right solution for your setup.

To get started, simply visit our website and fill out our Davit Worksheet. This provides us with the information we need to better understand your setup. From there, we'll ask for a few key measurements from both your swim platform and your PWC. If you already have a PWC, we'll use its specific measurements to help determine the right system. If you haven't purchased one yet, that's okay, we can help you determine what options will work with your setup.

What We'll Need

Main Vessel — Make & Model

Internal Width
Platform Depth
Height from Platform to Water
Transom Height
Any Obstructions on the Platform

PWC — Make & Model

Length
Beam
Bottom Type
Total Weight

Once we have these measurements, we can determine which system or systems may be the best fit for your setup, along with any limitations or considerations you should be aware of.

When needed, our CAD department can also create detailed renderings showing how the davit system would fit and function on your swim platform. This gives you a visual of the proposed setup and helps you better understand the fitment before making your purchase.

Not sure which system is right for you? That's what we're here for. Send us your measurements, and we'll help you find the right solution for your boat and PWC.
