On this episode of Yard 2 Yacht:

We lost our dinghy in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean crossing from Florida to Portugal. Most sailboats don't hoist their dinghy on davits while sailing across the Atlantic. The seas can be rough and can easily swamp a dinghy, weighing down and snapping off the davits. Just the weight of the dinghy bouncing up and down with each wave or swell can also be deadly for the davits.
