The SASD davits are designed for shore-based operations such as inshore rescue boat stations and training facilities. They feature both powered hoisting/lowering and full manual operation, with falls tensioning for all-weather use.

Often installed in remote locations and operated in adverse weather, these davits are designed with simplicity and minimal maintenance in mind, ensuring ease of use for rescue volunteers. Standard features include davit head and area lighting, as well as vandal-proof guards.
