Rod Saver Heavy-Duty Ratchet Trailer Tie-Down – 2″ x 3′ – Pair

Short and stout. The 2″ x 3′ Rod Saver is a heavy-duty boat trailer tie-down for when the distance from the boat’s tie point to the trailer frame is short. Less extra strap means less flapping on the highway.

Rod Saver built this one for medium to large runabouts, pontoons and cuddy cabins.

• 2″ x 3′ ratchet straps, sold in pairs.
• 2,400 lb capacity.
• Heavy vinyl-coated top hook, made in America.
• Zinc-plated bottom hook.

3′ or 5′? Measure from the tie point on the boat to the anchor point on the trailer. If it’s a short run, this 3′ strap keeps things tidy. If your trailer frame sits farther away, or you want the option to reach a different anchor, get the 2″ x 5′ version. Both have the same 2,400 lb capacity and hooks.

Smaller boat? The 1″ rubber ratchet strap is the lighter option.

Give the straps a second tightening after the first few miles, since the boat settles on the bunks. And if you also store a motorcycle, our Speedway Shelters are built for that.

Common Questions

What size transom strap do I need for a pontoon?
Rod Saver makes this 2-inch heavy-duty ratchet for medium to large runabouts, pontoons and cuddy cabins. This one is 3 feet long. If your trailer anchor sits farther from the boat’s eye, look at the 5-foot.

How strong is the Rod Saver heavy-duty trailer tie-down?
2,400 lb capacity. It’s 2 inches wide with an American made heavy vinyl coated top hook and a zinc plated bottom hook. You get a pair.

Is a 3-foot or 5-foot transom strap better?
Go by the gap. The 3-foot suits trailers where the anchor point sits close to the transom eye. The 5-foot gives more reach. Same 2,400 lb capacity and hooks on both.
