- 1991 Grand Banks 36 Classic
Our Grand Banks 36 came with an Avon Cadet 0' dinghy and a Seawise davit system. The davit hinges weren't installed well and we replaced them so it works better.
But one problem arose in that the dinghy "hinge sockets" blocks the use of the oar on that side. The oarlock is too short to clear. Sometimes we want to just row a short way to take a line to shore, etc. About the best we can do is to take it off (slowly unscrewing the knob) and moving it outside the hinge.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix/workaround this?
TIA,
Jack
