mounting anchor davit

[rbh]

need a little input on mounting an anchor davit for a 16 pound danforth anchor
it will be the stainless style with tipping front, the boat is a 270 sundancer and it already has the factory teak style ( pulpit? )
thanks

Re: mounting anchor davit

Does the pulpit have an anchor roller? Are you planning to install a windlass?

Re: mounting anchor davit

yes there is two rollers, one on the main piece and one on the tipping piece
I would like to keep as much of the old teak pulpit as possible, and at this time I have no plans for a capstan (that could be a pain to mount and I already have a wife thats good at hauling out the anchor)
