This is a stainless steel bracket I had made for the Garhauer Lifting Davit.  I want to mount the davit in the motorwell of my 22' Cruiser so the davit is directly over the kicker motor.  Problem is gas tank is directly under where I need to mount the foot.  This bracket is designed to mount on the starboard wall of the motor well area, to hold the foot.

I tried to send the fuel line down the fuel fill - no go; too sharp a bend.  I then disconnected the fuel line to the tank selection valve and could pump gas from one tank and then the other, from one tank to the other.
