I installed the Kingston D-352 Davits. It is different from the regular davitses and has an ingenious support system that uses the transom. It is a single bent Stainless Steel 3 inch tube. The quality of the blocks are not the best, but the stailess hardware is good, it is very easy to mount, and

This is one of the things I have been considering with my dinghy that I am going to add to my C 39. I really don't want gasoline on the boat. I thought about just having row and sail power for my dinghy, but the are times and places that having a motor would be desirable. There are some small

The 39 is a big 35 and the stern is kind of narrow. It is not ideal for davits, I just tow my dinghy. My dinghy has a 6 gallon tank and sometimes I have a 5 gallon jug in there too. That is plenty of dinghy gas without carrying more jugs on deck. I would not try and make an inboard diesel

I have a 6 gallon outboard tank bungee corded to the floor under the center seat. I discovered that if you don’t tie it down, a heavy rainstorm can fill the dinghy to the point the tank floats and gets capsized by the hose pulling on it. Makes a big mess when water gets in the vent and gas

Oh no, I would not recommend to tow the dinghy with an outboard on, especially in any seaway. It increases the center of gravity, and a 4 ft wave at the right time and angle may be enough to flip it. Then you will have a much harder time to right it, and probably junk the engine. Secondary issue
