Hah, I thought Simpson went out of business years ago. Thanks for this. Something like this may well work

These carbon fibre Atlas davits are fairly lightweight, look very elegant and come in a range of sizes.

They were designed by Simon Rogers - http://www.rogersyachtdesign.com/ - and his Dad Jeremy (of Contessa Yachts fame) builds them.

And better still, there's a uship on the route de grasse in antibes, about 10 mins drive from Mike's new berth...

My local USHIP has never got exactly what I want but can get most things in a week. Good place and preferable (locally) to the Bigship chandlers.

And even better there are any number of forumites there to help me fit it!
