    My 15 seconds of fame-gctid811600

    Actually "Adios Dinero" got the fame as a manufacturers poster with our new Rib sitting on the davits I beefed up and added electric winches to over the winter.

    It is all I expected it to be and more.

    Very nice. How did you beef up the davits?

      I added a 45 degree tube at the bend to stiffen the arms. They were rated at 300 pounds and I needed 380.

      also added the winches as I am too old to pull a block and tackle if I can avoid it. fail rate was 600 pounds before the mods and at the bend to the right of the winch

      so lots of safety factor.
