Winch Strap and Tie Downs
 

I want to upgrade from the wire cable on my trailer winch to a web strap and replace my cheap tansom tie downs with ones that are more heavy duty.

Dry weight on the 292 is 7,000 lbs. so figure close to 8,000 lbs. with fuel, water and other stuff.

What do you all suggest?

This what I use for winch strap. Tie downs same material, but ratchet strap. I run one on the bow and two on the stern.

You can find them with higher ratings. I replace every few years and take the tension off when sitting.

How about using something like this? With a heavy duty replaceable hook?
