PIPEWELDERS DAVIT |
Lead | |
|
I HAVE THE ORIGINAL PIPEWELDERS 1,000# DAVIT FROM A HATTERAS MOTORYACHT. THE TOP AND DECK FLANGE ARE PERFECT. THE STANDPIPE IS BENT, BUT IT IS ONLY SCHEDULE 40 ALUMINUM 4" PIPE. ASKING $600.00 FOR THE WHOLE THING WITH BUYER ARRANGING PICKUP OR DELIVERY.

Your davit | ||

I presume you are referring to a dinghy davit, not an anchor davit. I have been considering installing a davit on the bow of my 43C for an inflatable. Would you know if the size is compatible with a 43'? Also, is this a motorized davit?

Hi, Bob. It is a dingy davit. It would definitely fit on the bow of a convertible. There is no winch with it. It has a "pad" on it with four bolt holes for an electric or manual winch. My winch died.
I finally bought a new style low profile davit to replace this one. Thanks! |

I have the original 110V electric hoist on my circa 1977 Pipewelders davit/hoist. It works but looks old. Would like to get it rebuilt while I am at it. Any suggestions of a rebuilder? I can't locate the original manufacturer, I think they are out of business.
Thanks, Bill |

Was it a Cordem winch? If it is, it's cheaper to buy a new one. That's what got me looking to replace my entire setup with a new style low profile davit.
Good look on the hunt. |

Yep, it is a Cordem. Been looking for them to see about a rebuild, but can't locate. It still works OK, but wouldn't mind rebuilding or upgrading. Just had the davit repainted along with the rest of the boat. Looked at low profile cranes, but I am concerned about clearance of the dink where it is located. Do you know of a direct bolt-on replacement for the Cordem?
Thanks, Bill |

A lot of the other winches have the same bolt pattern, but you can get that rebuilt almost anywhere. Your marina probably has a place that they send equipment like that to.
Like I said, it's not cheap, but it will allow you to keep the same unit. Happy Labor Day weekend! K |

Location? | ||
|
Where are you and the unit located? Also, since my 43 doesn't presently have a davitt, can you give me any insites into the mounting requirements?

Bob, we are in Connecticut.
Mounting is pretty easy. You have to bore a 4" hole through the deck. The standpipe goes down into the cabin (usually into a hanging locker) and is supported at the bottom. There is a deck flange that you can set up to the proper angle of your deck when you weld it onto a new standpipe. The upper part of the davit just slips into the standpipe. A fairing block can be made to go between the deck and the flange to better fit the deck contour. K |

Well, That's certainly convenient. My boat's in New Haven. If you have a chance, call me at 203-799-4206 so we can discuss this in more detail.

The davit is now off the boat and I have reduced the price to $400.00 if someone can use it. I hate to see it sit around and go to waste.

Hi, Rob. What is your e-mail address? I don't have the digital camera around right now, but I think I can find the davit on a website and forward it to you. Where are you located?

I have the upper portion of the davit at home. I'll take a couple of photos and send them to you. The standpipe is still in the boat. It needs to be replaced but the deck flange is fine and can be cut off and rewelded onto the new pipe. The standpipe is only sch 40 aluminum pipe.
You can also e-mail me at kevinmillman303@comcast.net. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!! |

Would you ship it to Florida? | ||

barebone@yahoo.com
My zip is 33785 Let me know how much you would want. I would assume shipping would be around $100. I will put it to good use on a 1968 41' C Jim |

Electric Hoist | ||

Just a comment about the electric hoist-I replaced my 53 my davit's hoist motor a couple of years ago and found matching the bolt pattern of a new hoise difficult and costly when shopping for exact marine "replacements".
Turns out that Grainger has an electric hoist (110v) that fits perfectly. I bought this and it works great. It is meant for overhead i-beam hoist applications and is extremely powerful. It also has "remote" controls (on a 6 foot cord) which is extremely handy. I can raise and lower very easily myself as a result. It is not waterproof, but with annual greasing and a small canvas cover that I had made up, it still look s good and works perfectly. NOTE: unit comes with galvanized steel cable which I immediately replaced with ss cable for about $35). I highly recommend this "trick". I could replace this unit 2 or three times for the cost of a true "marine" unit (It was about $300 with shipping). It's been 2 years in salwater invironment and I bet I will get at least 5 more out of it. Good Luck -David Kern |
