Features:
Specs:
Loop the hook end of the strap around your trailer's frame and through the loop end. Once your boat is loaded, attach the hook to the tie-down anchor on the bow of your boat. Pull the other loop end of the strap to remove any slack and turn the buckle down to tighten the strap.
Note: A bow tie-down should always be used along with a winch strap and a set of transom or gunwale tie-downs. All straps and cables should be chosen according to their safe working load limit (WLL). To determine the maximum load, or break strength, of the strap, simply multiply the WLL by 3. The WLL is always one-third (1/3) of the maximum load.

Secure your boat's bow to your trailer with this heavy-duty, first-generation BoatBuckle tie-down strap. It is simple to hook up and gives you peace of mind during transport. 1,200 lbs Max load.This strap is great for holding down the bow of your boat while trailering. Sometimes the winch loosens up and the bow rises up and down. This strap prevents that and gives piece of mind. 280285
The strap is still working fine. Just finished a 700 mile trip towing my boat and the strap gives me piece of mind. Great product.
Paul - 08/05/2017Does what it's supposed to do, but it is "almost" too long for my boat. There is barely enough room to "latch" it between the boat eyelet and the trailer structure. This requires a moderately tall wench stand. It is easy to install and use. 550370
