A neighbor at my marina with a 27 foot cruising sloop mounted L brackets on his port side stanchions starting at midships and moving forward to the next stanchion. See attached file. I have a 28 footer and recently bought a 9 ft inflatable dinghy and find it heavy and bulky to move about, prefer not to tow it and it doesn't fit on the cabin or bow really. My neighbor will use a plastic lightweight kayak. Anyone try this? My concern is the stress on the stanchions. Is that unfounded? I'd hate to open a new leak or two at their base.
