On the dink, this common problem when bringing a dink up on davits and wanting a snug fit is readily cured by two lighter lines. Splice or whatever to a point on the hoist a bit below gunnel level and have those lines clip, one to each side, inside the dink as low as you can and still have a good spread. Depending on the dink, about the turn of the bilge. You don't want to just use the two lines for lifting as the stresses of such a shallow inverted V taking the dink's weight (well half, since two hoists if davits) is considerable. So let your existing points take the weight and the side points just steady the boat. You probably only need one set of these.
G'luck
