Our range of handling systems and davit systems are the first choice of navies, coastguards, seismic survey operators, pilot authorities and offshore operators who need to launch and recover small boats safely while their vessels are at sea.

We have proved ourselves over more than 30 years use in the North Sea and other harsh environments around the world. Self-tensioning and shock absorbing systems ensure crew safety and widen the operational window for users. Vestdavit's key focus is on operational effectiveness, safety and the reliability of its equipment.
Services
Founded in 1975 in Bergen, Norway on the shores of the North Sea, Vestdavit takes its name from the region in which it is based, Vestlandet, and the signature product for which it is renowned, the davit. While its headquarters remain in Bergen, where it designs and provides worldwide support for leading-edge boat launch-and-recovery systems, Vestdavit has recently expanded its global presence.
Fully customizable solutions to suit the desired client requirement and operational window. Vestdavit's range of FRC & MOB Boat davits are known for their advanced functionality and excellent reliability. Our extensive catalogue of davits allow us to meet even the most demanding of customer requirements and can support a launch and recovery in Sea State 6 conditions, widening the operational window.
Modern warships and coastguard cutters need to be flexible. They have to be able to handle multiple types of boats, weapons and containers through one mission bay and on both sides of the vessel. Vestdavit works with integrators and hangar specialists to provide total multi-role capability.

Raiding boats, RIBs, AUV sonar systems, USVs, rescue craft - a modern warship or coastguard cutter has to deploy and recover all of these to cover multiple roles.But handling boats is no longer enough. A truly multi-role mission bay deploys the same lifting and carriage systems to load, discharge and move internally a wide range of weapons, ammunition and containers.
Vestdavit is the first choice for navies, coastguards, customs, seismic and offshore energy operators who need to launch and recover boats on board ships working in tough environments. This is a selection of references that represents the diversity of Vestdavit's portfolio. It is by no means exhaustive, and a complete copy of our reference list is available on request.
Servicing and Spare Parts from the OEM are vital for keeping our systems in top working order. Vestdavit sells safe boat handling for life. We have a global service network ready to perform annual inspections and service work, backed by a well-developed spare parts system which ensures rapid and timely delivery of spares.
