Transom Strap Recommendation for Boat that Weighs 5,200 lbs
Updated 06/19/2020 | Published 06/17/2020 >
Question:
Hi, Looking for the correct tie downs. Boat is 5200 and assume the tandem axel trailer is about 2500. Do I need a break load of 2500 per strap or 1200-1500 per strap?

Expert Reply:
The heavier duty transom straps you'll want is the set part # IMF14207 which each have a break strength of 2,500 lbs per strap which would be great for your setup. The straps also don't support the full weight of the boat as the winch at the front does as well.
