I have been towing this dinghy around for approximately 6 months. Have had enough of that!!! We have a R25 and the dinghy is approximately 8 1/2 feet in lenght. I would like to install davits and transport it in the vertical postion on the swim platform. If anyone has some good recomendations regarding this installation or recomended equipment, I would appreceiate it. Also, any information regarding the best way to attach the support arms to the transom that hold the dinghy in a vertical position on the swim platform. We do not have an outboard motor to worry about at this time. Maybe down the road, but not now.
 
I installed the inflatable we have using nylon straps and snaps and these work very well and are cheap and are very strong. Look at out photo album (Nellie Too) and take a look at how we did it. I think the cost was about $50.00. Send me a PM if you would like some information.
