The dales are lovely, expensive though!

The FC470 is 5ft longer than Lionheart is wide, could be an issue so think I'll be towing her!

Now that is a very nice boat.

I've always wanted a wheelhouse, captain's chair, mug of sweet tea and the wipers on full blast when the weather worsens.

For some reason Jack Hawkins in 'The Cruel Sea' comes to mind!

That's probably what I would do I bet those davits are pricey,
Although I don't think 2 and half ft overhanging either side would matter Personally.

Maybe not, but seeing as you like everything in pairs just remember to wire two up in series
