Extending Your Options with Hurley Marine
A practical solution for boat owners who need additional swim platform depth for their dinghy davit system.
Not every boat has the swim platform depth needed to accommodate a dinghy davit system. For boat owners who need additional clearance, Hurley Marine offers an extension designed to make installation possible on platforms with limited depth.
Two extension options to accommodate different davit systems:
H3O Extension: Extends your tenders keel overboard approximately 6½ inches and is designed specifically for the H3O Davit System.
H3O+ Extension: Extends your tenders keel overboard approximately 9 inches and is designed specifically for the H3O+ Davit System.
Each extension is model-specific and is not interchangeable between the H3O and H3O+ systems.
Permanent Extension, Removable Davit
Once installed, the extension remains permanently mounted to the swim platform. However, the davit system itself remains removable, allowing boat owners to remove their davit when it is not in use.
The extension is constructed using marine-grade King StarBoard, reinforced fiberglass supports, a non-skid surface, and stainless steel hardware for durability in the marine environment.
Customize to Match Your Platform
For boat owners looking for a more integrated appearance, additional decking can be added over the extension to better match the existing swim platform. This provides an opportunity to create a more cohesive look while maintaining the additional reach needed for the davit system. Please note that additional decking is not supplied Hurley Marine and would need to be sourced separately.
A Practical Solution for Limited Swim Platform Depth
Hurley Marine's Davit Extensions offer an additional installation option for boat owners who otherwise may not have enough swim platform depth for their dinghy davit system. Rather than giving up on a davit installation, the extension provides a way to work with the vessel's existing configuration.
