Question:

Expert Reply:
To ensure that you have enough straps for your boat when loaded on your boat trailer you will need to know the weight of both the boat and trailer. Since you are only trying to hold the boat and trailer together you need to ensure that the break strength rating for all of your straps will hold them together.
The BoatBuckle G2 Retractable, Ratcheting Bow Tie # IMF14393 has a break strength of 2,500lbs. Pair this with the BoatBuckle G2 Retractable, Ratchet Transom Tie-Downs # IMF14256 and their 1,500lb break strength each, you will have 5,500lbs holding your boat and trailer together.
If your trailer weighs more than 5,500lbs which is unlikely you can use BoatBuckle G2 Retractable, Ratcheting Gunwale Tie-Down Straps # IMF14221 with a break strength of 2,500lbs each to secure your boat and trailer together.
