2" straps are 10K/lb test each. And, you're not lifting the boat, you're holding a trailer to the bottom of it.
A good amount of downward tug with 2 straps up front and one on each rear corner bcreates alot of bunk friction that holds it from sliding as well. I would bet these yellow strap hooks would straighten out:eek: I use the blue strap style hooks. |

What about a shock load,bursting strenth,like if the toung dug in sudden stopped. It it supose to still hold it?

Seems like straps may have saved him at or below 30mph, but at highway speeds there's no telling what could have happened. Straps are a must, but that trailer failed huge. if it was built that lame, I would venture to guess the strap connections welded or bolted to the trailer may not have been up to snuff either. |

props come off every time ? just in case ? theft ? how much were those props worth on the nortech on the road ?
if you ask me seems like the guy was a newbie , i've never understood 300k and up boats on cheap traillers , are you kidding me ? it seems to me like if you have that money to spend the boat automaticlly goes on a manning or myco. my boat is practicly worthless and it still:food-smiley-007: has a cable ,strap, and saftey chain on the front and 2 big azz 3" straps on the back , and where the ratchet wants to hit the boat i got these terrycloth waxing pads that simply slide in between the ratchet and the fiberglass ,works awsome for the last 12 years |

Lesson to be learned.
1) Always have enough truck for the towing job. 2) Always have enough BRAKE both truck and trailer. 3) Always have a trailer that carry capacity exceeds the capacity of the load. 4) You cannot ever have too many straps or too heavy of a strap. 5) Slow down and allow more distance when weather and traffic conditions require it. 6) Double check all connections, brakes, lights, tires and straps before pulling out. 7) Say a prayer before leaving that someone texting while driving does not wreck you.
