I am thinking of going with a Seawise davit on my Ocean Alexander 456 so I can keep one side of the swim platform free. I am looking at the manual model with a hand crank. I learned that I need to mount a crossed member on the dinghy floor to stiffen the whole structure. Does the cross member get in the way?
Can anyone with a seawise davit comment on their satisfaction or frustrations with the system? I have a fuel tank which fits over the transom. Would I be able to keep it on the transom with the engine, or would I need to remove?
Thanks in advance for sharing your experiences.
