Transom mount hinges for an inflatable.

[Crowblack]

Anybody know where to get those "hingy things" for swinging an inflatable up on to the stern of the boat.

You know the sort of thing - hinges with with a "prong" that go through a stuck on patch on the tube of the inflatable so the rubber goes across the stern of the boat.

Do the stuck on patches and the hinges come as a kit ?

Sorry about the strange description - hope it's clear.

Google "snap davits" instead of "transom hinges" and all will become clear

Weaver snap davits is what you want. Google will give you manufacturers site and UK dealers. Expensive bits of kit.

Use with great respect. There was a chap in the Solent a couple of years ago who was sitting on his bathing platform.
He decided to go for a swim and partially removed some of his essential tackle on one of these. He was airlifted to hospital with massive blood loss.

Be careful!!

Ahhh - snap davits - I'd never have guessed.

What an excruciating tale Jabs tells - maybe a rename "snapnads" davits ?

I'll have a measure up - for the SD's that is - now I know where to get them.

Thanks chaps.

I've met the guy-his club raised a great deal of money for the Hamble Inshore Rescue organisation-they got to him quickly which was important for his situation.

The event was called-IIRC- the "Purple Plum Ball"..................
