Telescopic davits

Telescopic davits consist of two arms welded at the ceiling of the upper deck in such a way to allow the promenade deck to be completely free.

This solution is particularly useful when this deck is used as passengers walking area, but also during the embarkation in emergency case. The davit arms may be extended outboard as necessary to permit boats translation from stored to embarkation position and lowering in any trim and list condition stated by SOLAS.

No heavy electrical system is required because energy is provided by hydraulic power pack and accumulators.
