NorDav Quick Release Dual-Bolt Deck Mounting Kit (QRTB)

Description

Premium Twin-Point Quick-Release Deck Anchor Kit for Swivel Davits

The NorDav Quick Release Dual-Bolt Deck Mounting Kit (QRTB) provides the perfect structural connection for boat builders, luxury yacht owners and watercraft operators who refuse to compromise on deck space or safety. Standard davit brackets permanently bolt to the platform, cluttering your stern and creating dangerous obstruction zones when the tender is launched. The QRTB framework solves this entirely by acting as an intermittent twin-point structural bridge, allowing you to reclaim your entire transom footprint whenever your tender or personal watercraft is in the water.

Advanced Marine Metallurgy & Zero-Tolerance Machining

Constructed entirely from premium electro-polished duplex stainless steel, these high-durability dual receiver sockets possess immense structural yield capacity. They are engineered to endure punishing vertical shearing forces, intense torque values and heavy hull vibration when traversing rough open ocean swells. The smooth, rounded edges and close-tolerance twin guide tracks ensure your davit assembly slides into place easily, locking rigidly into a single, sway-free unit.

Effortless Launch & Entertaining Flexibility

Adhering to NorDav’s uncompromising standard of user convenience, the tool-free quick-lock mechanism is completely straightforward. When you drop anchor and want an unencumbered, luxurious swim deck for your family and guests, simply pull the heavy-duty quick-release locking pins and slide the davit arms off the vessel structure. The remaining low-profile deck bolt heads sit completely flush, blending seamlessly into your teak or fiberglass deck layouts while maintaining pristine yachting aesthetics.

🔧 Official QRTB Structural Installation Guide

Follow these verified steps to ensure a completely safe, rigid, and waterproof twin-bolt fitment:

1. Position Alignment Tracking: Place your primary NorDav davit frame on the swim platform with the tender loaded. Align the two-bolt base receiver plates under the frame legs, ensuring the tender tubes clear your vessel’s transom when rotated back.
2. Mark and Center-Punch: Use a fine marker or center-punch to transfer the twin pre-drilled bolt mounting holes cleanly onto your fiberglass or teak deck footprint. Double-check under the deck to ensure the paths clear all fuel lines, electrical wiring trunks and structural stringers.
3. Drill and Core Relief: Drill your twin pilot holes matching your marine bolt specifications. (Pro-Tip for Cored Decks: If your swim platform uses a balsa or foam core, scrape away 10mm of core material inside the hole and fill it with solid epoxy paste to isolate the inner core from moisture tracks).
4. Marine-Grade Sealing: Generously apply a high-performance polyether or polyurethane marine adhesive sealant (such as 3M 5200 or Sikaflex 291) to the underside of the receiver blocks and inside the drilled bolt cavities to create a completely hermetic, waterproof barrier.
5. Backing Plate Counter-Anchoring: Pass your heavy-duty stainless steel twin-point threaded bolts down through the deck. From the underside of the platform, always fit oversized structural marine backing plates and nylon-locking aircraft nuts to distribute the heavy vertical torque and payload forces evenly.
6. Pin Lock Final Torque: Wipe away any excess structural sealant blowout. Slide your davit cradle frame tracking directly onto the twin bolt receivers, drop your high-tensile quick-release locking pins through the channel blocks, and verify that the mechanism clicks firmly into its locked configuration.
