Dinghy Davits for Prairie 36?

[island_dancer]

I will be starting the Loop in January on my 36 foot Prairie trawler and have a 9 foot Boston Whaler as my dinghy. However, I do not have dinghy davits on the Prairie to hold the whaler. My two questions are: 1) What suggestions can be provided as to the most cost effective davits and 2) is the 9 foot Boston Whaler an appropriate dinghy.
Thanks,
Gary

How much does the whaler weigh?

Look up Nick Jackson davits. Yes the 9 ft whaler will be a fine dinghy. The Prairie has a wide beam so the whaler will fit no problem across the transom.
