Deck Cranes and Davits

Deck cranes and davits for safe lifting on board

A good deck crane or davit makes it easier to lift and move a tender, outboard motor or other heavy equipment on board. With the right lifting system, loads can be raised in a controlled manner and safely positioned on the deck or alongside the boat. At Marine-Outlet, you will find deck cranes, davits and accessories for different boats and applications.

Deck cranes and davits are used when heavy or large equipment needs to be moved regularly on board. The right design depends on factors such as the weight of the load, available space and how the lifting system is mounted to the boat.

Davits for your boat

Davits are a practical solution for lifting and supporting items such as tenders. They can be mounted on the stern, deck or another suitable mounting point.

When choosing davits, it is important to consider the load capacity, dimensions and mounting method. The position of the davits on the boat is also important for safely lifting and moving a load.

Deck cranes for lifting loads

A deck crane provides additional flexibility when loads need to be lifted or moved from different positions. Depending on the design, a deck crane can be used for tenders, outboard motors, batteries or other heavy equipment.

When choosing a deck crane, consider the maximum lifting capacity, reach and available mounting options. This allows you to choose a crane that suits your boat and the tasks you want to perform.

Deck cranes and davits for different boats

Not every boat requires the same lifting system. The right deck crane or davit depends on the size of the boat, available space and weight of the equipment being lifted.

A compact davit may be sufficient for a smaller tender, while larger boats or heavier loads may require a stronger design. Always check the load capacity and mounting requirements before choosing a lifting system.

What should you consider when choosing a deck crane or davit?

Maximum load capacity is one of the most important factors when choosing a deck crane or davit. Consider not only the weight of the tender or load, but also any additional equipment.

The mounting position, reach and available space are also important. Secure attachment to the boat helps ensure that the lifting system remains stable during use.

Complete lifting system

A deck crane or davit does not work on its own. A complete and reliable lifting system may also require suitable lifting straps, ropes, fastening materials and other accessories.

Regularly inspect the deck crane, davits and related components for wear, corrosion, damage and proper operation. By maintaining the system properly and using it within the specified load limits, it remains reliable whenever you need to lift heavy equipment on board.
