1. Pads are made with pressure-treated wood with outdoor carpet padding, and will not rot. 2. Large diameter screws with wing nuts allow quick, easy, vertical adjustment of stands. 3. All fasteners are zinc-plated to resist corrosion. 4. Keel board is made from pressure-treated lumber, and will not rot. 5. Crossmembers are positioned so the cradle may be lifted with slings or forks without additional blocking. 6. Unique vertical assemblies quickly adjust inward to fit varying hull widths, and will fold flat for storage. 7. Extra heavy rectangular steel tube frame provides greater torsional rigidity.

About JOWI Cradles We build six sizes of cradles - their individual specifications are listed below. The right cradle for your boat is generally determined by displacement. The cradle can be adjusted to any hull shape, and the vertical tubes can be sized for any draft. At one time or another, we have cradled most of the modern sailboats and have all of the dimensions on file, so we can help with the exact tube lengths for your boat. There are
a few exceptions, such as some of the lightweight high performance sport boats that can
have a rather deep draft in relation to displacement and length. An example of picking
which cradle: Say your boat is 29 feet long, displaces 7,200 pounds with a 4 and a half
foot draft, the Model 1 is the obvious choice. It has a capacity of 10,000 pounds and
can accomodate 30 feet of hull length. Now, say your boat is 40 feet long, 7,200 pounds
in displacement and 7 and a half feet in draft. The Model 1 is clearly too short, so
we may suggest a Model 2.All
models have flat black enamel finish and 2" X 8" pressure-treated keel boards as
standard equipment. Galvanized finishes are available optionally. Custom
cradles, wheels, and modifications are available. |
