George, I bet there is a place closer than Defender, that has a set of Weaver RBD100 Black Dinghy Davits in stock. They should also offer free delivery to Ft. Lauderdale. I bet one of the guys here can think of a place like that.
Ok Mods, I know that's close to the line, but I don't think I crossed it. If I did, take it down. I'm really looking for an excuse to see his boat.

Friar George, Where did you come up with $460. Defender sells them for $350 if you are talking about the regular Weaver RBD100 Snap Davit. With a little research, you might get them cheaper than that.

You have to excuse me but I am still amazed at the prices some of this stuff fetches simply because it has the word "marine" attached to it.
Yes, I got that price on the Weaver site so a dealer would be cheaper. Still $350 bucks for $20 worth of stainless steel and some rubber pads is a hard pill for me to swallow.
I'll use some rope or tow the dingy for now and move the davits way down the list so I can take care of some more urgent tasks.
Move wife says I am tighter than Dick's hat band when it comes to money. Guess she's right.
Sorry for taking thread off topic. I feel better now. 😘

Steve: Your boat looks set up for fun. Hard to beat that. Good looking vessel, convenient and versatile. The Weaver system just made it better.

I think a new set of pads is around $125? Maybe $50 for a used pair of snaps.

Nice setup Steve! Yea, I know but it sure hurts biting down on those bullets!
That is exactly what I need though. Maybe some used ones are the ticket and a replacement set of pads.
