Best way to store a Dinghy

Many people often wonder what the best way to store a Dinghy is.

Even if your dinghy is infaltable or hard it will require proper storage, and the correct storage can make everything much easier and safer. It will even help to lengthen the life of your dinghy.

Below are some options for Dinghy Storage:

  • Clip-on davits
  • Rotating davits
  • Swim platform lifts

There are other options available but these are the most common. If you have come across another option that you feel is good too feel free to comment on this article.

When purchasing a davit, lift or other solution make sure that you purchase it so that it cane hold at least 20-50% more than the actual boat weight in order to allow for the storage items inside the boat ie. fuel, paddles and lifejackets. Sometimes the fuel and internals of the boat can weight more than the boat, but its best not to store everything inside yor dinghy when not in use.

There is no real best way to store your dinghy it merly comes down to price, fatures and what type of boat you have. Just make sure you read up about each item and take into account the warranty of any of the items just incase of any problems.
