St. Croix Rotating Davits For Sail & Power Boats
Model #400
Ideal for sail and power boats. Rotating Davits incorporate a fixed upper
block welded as a structural component of the upper arm to multiply davit
strength and prevent twisted lines. St. Croix #400 Rotating Davits will lift and
carry 300 lbs.(136 kg.) of boat and motor with a 9:1 lifting ratio. When not in
use, the davits rotate or fold together to clear the stern of your boat. Rotating
Davits are constructed of 1" (25mm) tubular stainless steel and polished to a
mirror finish.
New! Model #488 Rotating Davits - Designed for heavier lifting, these davits are rated for 488lbs. (222 kg) per
pair. 1.25" (32mm) diameter heavy wall tubing combined with a 9:1 lifting ratio make these davits the strongest
St Croix Rotating Davit system available, yet maintain the streamlined style and ease of use of the original St.
Croix Davits. System includes 50ft. of 3/8" lifting line.
Rotating Davits on Carver 405 - St. Croix Rotating Davits install using a
3" x 3" (7.6cm x 7.6cm) ball and socket deck mount with a 26 degree
pivot and an upper "clam shell" mount. The upper mount attaches to
either a stern rail or a vertical surface. For power boats with an extended
swim platform, optional #401 Platform Mounts are available. The dinghy
is secured in the davits with the use of St. Croix Stainless Steel Ratchet
Straps (Item #242). The design of some boats may require the use of
optional mounting hardware listed in the table below. In addition, we
specialize in designing and fabricating custom mounting brackets.
