What are these for?

II am in the process of buying a 370EX and am curious about the two items on the swim deck.  Any idea of what these are for?  Thanks

I believe they are used for a davit system to haul a dingy.

that makes sense, the broker and surveyor didn't know  either!  Thanks

Seriously? Holy crap.

Yea those are pads where you would mount Davits if you had them. And agree with will, holy crap that the surveyor didn’t know. Maybe his first power boat survey?

In fairness, the weaver setup is suboptimal in most regards so it’s a wonder why Rinker chose to include them, especially on such a large boat. On a 24-28’ boat, fine.

I don’t know, I see a lot of boats using that system. Looks like it works well. Now the spots for the pads on the pic above are definitely not optimal as far as location but still pretty obvious as to what they are for.

Yes the location is way bad! They’re fine for a dinghy and 3hp motor - lugging and storing anything bigger than that is awful.
