Question:
Would these straps be suitable for my boat: maxum 1800 sr3a? The boat weighs 2500 lbs. the WLL is confusing. Thanks

Expert Reply:
You would want the Transom straps part # IMF08893 as it has a break strength of 2,500 lbs and a WLL of 833 lbs. Think of the breaking strength as the strength the strap has when in an emergency situation and the WLL as the amount of weight it can handle continuously. Since the strap wouldn't be supporting the full weight of your boat at all times the # IMF08893 would work well for yours that weighs 2,500 lbs.
