Utility boat

I was thinking lately, about my utility/lifeboat. She is my 7 foot Fatty Knees dinghy, i purchased her, used and although, not yet proven, she comes highly recommended.The somewhat, difficult part to figure out,is how to properly secure her to the deck of GYPSY. It seems that the Westsail 28 and 32, dont have as easy an arrangement to secure a overturned dinghy on deck, as say a Bristol Channel Cutter. So, i have to come up with a suitable on deck securing arrangement. I hate drilling holes to the deck,for additional cleats or padeyes!.
