Those are nice looking davits, and I have seen them on other boats, whose owners think highly of them. That said there are more than a few brands around.

The Kingston davit? If I have found the correct website I’d wonder though. I don’t think that davits that include handrail support are a good deal. Flex your stanchions and you will develop leaks, and see rotten decks a few years down the road.

Keep in mind that I use my mast and boom, along with Harken sailboat hardware to launch my Avon 310 RIB so I might not be a good judge of davits.
