Bow Safety Chain?
Have a 32 Fountain on a painted trailer. Looking for a safety chain from the trailer to the bow eye. What are my options that are rubber coated to protect my trailer paint? Didn’t have much luck with a google search. Thanks. |
make your own chain and then dip it in a bucket of plasti dip a couple times.
|
Get a solid piece of chain that will hold the boat. If it does not the damage to the boat bottom will far exceed the paint chip on the trailer. I have seen a 33 Donzi take a powder, owners comment was what would you need that for?
Dip like said, or just get a bungie and secure it so it can not flop around. I run two on mine, one to control forward, one the opposite . Chain is cheap, boat bottoms not so much. |
The easiest thing to do might be to pick up a rubber coated anchor chain and cut it to length.

they make sleeve protectors for chains. Multiple different ID's available. I have seen them but never used them so, so I have no real life input. Just throwing it out there. :)
Edit in: using Chain Safety Sleeve for a search term seems to work well also, https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...0f570a4fd8.jpg |
I have seen SS cable a d a turnbuckle used .Usually one forward and one aft.

Thanks for the ideas! |
and get a chain with an adequate rating.

Think I bought a steel cable already coated for that purpose. Had eye on one end to bolt to trailer and hook on the other. Don’t remember where I got it. |
How many pound chain do you guys use? |
