Lifeboat davits

PALFINGER’s lifeboat davits are suitable for any type of lifeboat and rescue boat with a full complement of people and
equipment. These davits can be supplied in modular sections or as one completely assembled unit, depending on the available deck space. Since its SWL and outreach are usually determined by the size of the lifeboat, PALFINGER MARINE offers a range of standard designs that are adaptable to some extent in order to meet individual and specific needs.
