forespar nova lift davit brochure.qxp THE CONCEPT NOVA LIFTTM was designed specifically to handle the task of loading and unloading heavy stores and equipment on sailboats. Now, by teaming your existing cockpit winch power with NOVA LIFTTM you can safely and easily accomplish these tasks. With NOVA LIFTTM, the sailor can now lift a 15 hp outboard easily and safely with far less risk to his topsides, often performing the task singlehanded. No longer risk overnight loss of your valuable outboard in an unsavory anchorage because it was too much of a struggle to haul aboard that night... The list of uses is endless, from generators, batteries, dive equipment, large pets, large fish, fuel & water jugs, propane bottles, stores and so on... NOVA LIFTTM UNQUESTIONABLY THE BEST!!
