MSD-370 Solar Arch with Davits – Heavy-Duty, Stylish, and Built for Offshore Cruising
The MSD-370 Solar Arch with Davits is designed for sailors who require a stronger and more versatile mounting system than the compact MSD-200. Ideal for long-distance cruisers and offshore sailors, it combines powerful load capacity, sleek styling, and simple installation into one durable package.

Even better, the MSD-370 comes with integrated davits, making it the perfect all-in-one solution for mounting solar panels, dinghies, outboards, and other essential marine gear. This means you save space, improve safety, and maximize functionality on your sailboat.
