Question:

My boat tie-down points are only 22 inches from the trailer tie-down points. Are these straps adjustable for less than 24 inches, and if not, do you offer some that are? I have a 2001 Tuffy Esox Magnum on a Champion trailer.

Expert Reply:

The BoatBuckle Pro Series Tie-Down Straps, part # IMF17631, have a maximum tie-down length of 24 inches. The straps can be tightened down to a length less than 24 inches. You should have no problem using them if you have a tie-down length of 22 inches. It will not leave much excess strap.

I would also look at the BoatBuckle Pro Series Tie-Down Straps, part # IMF17632. These straps have a maximum tie-down length of 48 inches and can be tightened down to 22 inches, but will leave you with more excess strap.

The # IMF17631 and # IMF17632 straps have a working load limit of 400 lbs per strap, so a set of two straps will safely secure a load weighing 800 lbs.
