DInghy Rings "FLEX" - A Pivoting Vertical Davit System For Inflatable Boats (FREE Shipping to USA, Canada, Australia and several other countries)
Dinghy Rings are innovative pivoting dinghy davits, for storing inflatable boats or dinghies at the stern of a pleasure boat, in the harbour or while cruising. The davits are designed to be adjustable, affordable and discreet and is available in three versions to fit sailboats and yachts with external swim platforms, small swim platforms or flat sterns with no swim platforms - especially on sailboats.
Dinghy Rings FLEX is best for sailboats and yachts with no swim platform. It is hung over the stern, bow or side of a boat. It is adjustable in height and fits almost any boat.
Reverse the dinghy astern of your boat, place the rear ends of the dinghy’s pontoons in the rings, secure the dinghy and pull to lift it as the rings rotate. It hoists your inflatable in harbour or while cruising 
and suits almost any motorboat or sailing yacht.
- Convenient, easily handled by one person using leverage.
- Discreet and detachable and easily stored away.
- Gentle to both boat and dinghy.
- Stable, as the weight is distributed equally.

- Quick launch in emergency situations.
- Affordable, thanks to a simple and clever design.
- When in use the dinghy should not be permitted to take on and hold water.
- A small engine can be kept mounted under certain circumstances - see below.

When underway in calm weather the system should be used at only 15-45 degrees so that the skipper can overlook it. In rough weather and seas, the inflatable boat should be secured tight to the larger vessel in a full vertical position. Speed and maneuvering must be monitored and adjusted subject to weather and sea conditions.
The supplied safety straps must always be used, and the inflatable boat must always be secured with additonal tie-down rope.
