Davits on MSC Seashore
Navim Group has also designed, engineered and successfully delivered the DAVITS: Semigravity Davits System for Life, Tender and Rescue Boats (in particular 14 Semi-gravity Davits for Lifeboats (314 pax), 4 Semi-gravity Davits for combined Lifeboat/Tenderboat (267), 2 Semi-gravity Davits for Life Rescueboats (6 pax) and 2 Telescopic Davits for Rescueboats (6 pax) with Suez Service.
This davits type is designed in order to leave deck 6 free with embarkation operations taking place from deck 7 with the boat in stowed position. The arms can be extended outboard as necessary to launch the boat at sea in all trim and list conditions. The lifeboats, tender boats and rescue boats are arranged on Deck 7. They are fully sheltered and protected from green seas effect by means of an extension of the deck 6, below the lifeboats. Such extension of deck 6 extend up to a width corresponding to the external side of lifeboats/tender boats keels.
The davits are of approved types and incorporate all statutory arrangements. They are selected taking into account very frequent lifting and lowering operations, especially as far as the davits of the boats used as tenders are concerned, for which these operations are performed every day. Gratings made in fiberglass and movable handrails or gates are installed on the deck in the davit area. These consent embarkation to passengers and easy access to davits and boats for service and maintenance purposes.
