Heavy duty Boat tie downs
Looking for new tie downs for bow and transom for a 46' vee on a myco. New boat did not come with any. Had some nice ones on the 42 but don't remember the brand.
Thanks,
Ben

Here is what I use, [ATTACH=CONFIG]505594[/ATTACH]
Boat buckle. They work very, and I love that they are always on my trailer.

Boat Buckles? Come on! I can straighten one of those hooks with a pair of vice grips; way less force than when a boat decides it's coming off the trailer.
The OP stated he's tying down a 46' boat. Those BBs are rated for 2500 lbs. which I am willing to bet is the webbing strength. not the hooks.
I might use the BBs on my PWC and Mini-Hawk, but that's about it.
Those straps at www.ratchetstraps.com with the 10,000 lbs. rating are what the OP needs, and I'd venture to say a few more folks on the forum as well.

I LOOOVE my Boat Buckles.. when I had my sway issues , twice the boat was swaying so hard and pulling the Excursion around like a tonka toy, trailers tires squeeling, in 3 lanes at once, I thought for sure the rig was going to flip over, the Belt Buckle held no problem... good enough for me.

Me too, I don't expect them to hang on if I should ever flip the rig over ( hope that doesn't happen) just want something to hold the back and front down from bouncing and they do that job very well.
