Note: Tie-down straps must be chosen according to their safe working load limit (WLL). The weight of the secured cargo must not exceed the combined WLL of the straps being used. For example, if you are using straps with a WLL of 500 lbs each to tie down a load weighing 1,000 lbs, then you need at least 2 straps to safely secure that load. It is recommended that you always use straps in pairs.
The transom (stern, or rear of your boat) provides important tie-down points for securing your boat to your trailer. These transom straps are intended to be part of a boat tie-down system, and they should always be used along with a bow strap and at least one gunwale strap, for safe trailering.
The gear-like ratcheting mechanisms on these transom straps let you provide just the right amount of tension needed to secure your boat's transom to your trailer, and each strap stays locked in place until you press its release lever.
To protect your boat's paint finish, the top S-hooks are coated with rubberized nylon and each ratchet buckle sits on a pad made from the same webbing used for the strap.

Speaker 1: Today we'll be having a look at the BoatBuckle line of heavy-duty ratchet transom tie-down straps. Here's what our strap looks like installed. Now the reason you're going to want a strap like this is because not only will this secure your boat to your trailer, which in some places it is required by law to have a transom strap, but this will also keep the boat from bouncing up and down on the trailer as you're going down the road, which could cause damage to the bottom of the hole.Now what sets this strap apart from others on the market is because of a couple unique features. We have an easy to use ratcheting mechanism, and then behind it on the back, we have this webbing right here, which acts as a way to protect the boat from the metal of the ratchet mechanism. This will prevent any scratching or marring from occurring. We also have a rubber coating over our hooks for the same purpose, this will prevent scratching and marring, and we don't have to worry about damaging our boat.Now the webbing of our strap is made of a polyester material, which is weather-resistant, but yet still very flexible.
Now all the metal components on our strap have a zinc coating on them to help make them corrosion-resistant, making them ideal for marine applications and even limited exposure to salt water.These straps feature an 833 pound working load limit and a 2,500 pound break limit per strap. Our strap features webbing that is about two inches in width, and this particular one has a working span of two feet. The span is the area where you can actually ratchet it down from your hook and retract the strap up into it. We also have straps that are four feet long and six feet long. Now these straps are super easy to use compared to other ones on the market because of our easy to use ratcheting mechanism.
We already have it nice and tight, but when we want to release the tension it's a simple process. We just lift up on this lever here, push back down, and we can easily unhook it. To get the tension back, just pull your strap back down, take the ratchet mechanism, and ratchet it tight, and then close it. You want to make sure you secure up your excess strap as appropriately as possible. And this particular application since it's not dragging on the ground will be okay as-is.Now that we've gone over some features, we'll show you how to install them.
We'll begin by locating the transom tie-down attachment point on our boat which is right here. We'll take the end that has our ratchet mechanism and we'll attach it to that using the hook. We'll now take our other end with the loose strap and we'll go to the attachment point on our trailer with the hook. We'll now feed the end of the strap through the ratchet mechanism, pull it tight, and begin to ratchet it to secure the strap. Once we have it sufficiently tight, we'll repeat the same process for the other side.And that completes our look at the BoatBuckle line of heavy-duty ratchet transom tie-down straps..

These heavy-duty tie-downs help you secure you boat's transom (stern) to your trailer. Ratchets make it easy to tighten the straps precisely and maintain tension. Polyester webbing and corrosion-resistant steel hardware. 2,500 lbs Max load.I was looking for a transom strap for my boat. I wanted ratcheted straps rather than buckle straps. I had purchased a cargo carrier for my Yukon in the past and was very satisfied with the cost and quality. When I found these straps on etrailer I did not hesitate to purchase them. They are very good quality and the price was very fair. 617493
Doug - 04/06/2020great product just what i needed 646966
Product has operated as expected after one year. The only reason I did not give a five star rating is the latches have a tenancy to get stuck from time to time... 615513

Hard to find short straps. They work gr eat 633103
Product was shipped and received on time. Used the straps to hold my boat I just purchase on the trailer. I used 2 on the front of the boat and 2 on the back. Traveled over 100 miles and had no issues with the straps loosening up. When I went to remove them they released with ease. Nice heavy duty straps and would recommend them. Well worth the money. 612747
Kenneth - 03/19/2020Just received them yesterday. After opening the box they appear to be off good quality using above average hardware and nylon straps. Should give years of service. 605208
David - 02/16/2020Prefect for my boat. 564477
Straps loosen a just a bit and are hard to open after traveling dirt Canadian roads. But for not spending the extra money to get enclosed ratchets, these are good for the price. Only wish is if the S hooks were wider. 516599
