            I rarely write reviews but these straps work fantastic. They are high quality and so easy to use. I also bought the optional brackets so no drilling in my trailer. I choked at first on the cost but after using them I think they are worth the money

                The hardware was not long enough for our trailer, but a trip to [@] + a couple bucks and done. This is the best money we have ever spent on the boat accessories! It takes literally 2 seconds to put the tie downs on the boat, and now I can do it, don't have to wait for hubby! We already have the same thing on the bow. We loved it so much that we had to put the them on the transom too!

                        Can you use these on a Ranger Trailer to secure the cover? Do they hang on the grommets on the motor mount like the Ranger version for easy installation and removal?

                          They come in a pair with all the mounting hardware. All you need in most situations is two wrenches 5/8" and 11/16".
