Hi all. Quick question to help me decide:
I have 2 400w rigid panels and a 9’ dinghy 9.9 HP motor. (FYI can’t have the dinghy hoisted on deck. It has to be stern, hence davits)

What arch / davits system do you use?

Thx

I have custom made davits that I mounted my solar panel through a custom structure.

I've looked at a number of the systems at the Annapolis boat show but didn't bite on any specific one. But I have a 1984 boat with unique structure constraints by modern standards.

If you measured right they should. I think some of them looked quite nice...

Atlantic Towers. Hoping the product is better than their customer service and website
If I'm remembering correctly, I saw them at the boat show, their product looked well finished. Good luck and let us know how they work out for you.

I installed an Atlantic towers arch 3 years ago….. did it myself and love it. I have a 10ft highfield and a 9.9 outboard and 2 200 watt pa els up top. I have some good tips on the installation….. if you care to chat give me a call. I’ll dm you my number. Before we speak, dont buy the dinghy davits. …. Get a better fit without them
