Fiddlehead, I have been researching davits myself. I have a 1997 33 Open with a tuna door. Same issue as you have. I want to have dinghy davits and still use my door. What I came up with is Hurley H20 system. There are 2 rails that hook up to 2 plates that are bolted to the swim platform.  the rails can actually be removed very easy after the dinghy has been launched. This setup also allows me to use my swim ladder with is mounted under the access door on the swim platform. Check them out. Talked to them on Sat, real nice people.
