I am confused on the proper length. My boat to trailer to eye hooks measure 30". Do I need the 2' or 4' straps?

Sounds like you need longer ones. You may want to consider a different type that adjusts easier than these. They are kind of a pain to hook up.

You definitely need the 4 ft. It doesn't hurt anything to have the extra length. You can either cut the extra length and burn the end to prevent it from unraveling, or fold and tuck the extra length under the velcro.

4 ft, used them for years, I launch my boat 3-4 time a week fishing, never have trouble with them

U have 30" to cover, that's more than 2', right ? Now try 4' Boat Buckle !!!

I don't know the answer to the technical questions but the straps were plenty long enough and worked well to hold a large van on a car hauler trailer for over 3000 miles. One strap did slip off on a very bumpy stretch of highway but I may not have had it tight enough. Once I really sinched it down it was fine.

I just went and checked. You can come out about 1' from the frame of the trailer on each post. I have mine set about 5" from the frame now. They are very sturdy. Great for lining up the boat when loading. I would buy again in a minute if I needed them.

It should fit your boat fine.. mine was for a 20 ft and I had 5 feet to spare . I had to return it. The third party was not easy to work with. But Amazon made it good on the return.

Hi LeonardThere is a hook just like the one in the picture at the other end for securing to the trailer. And yes; you can cut off the loose end of the strap if you wish, although I am not really sure why you would want to make the strap proprietary (much less versatile) instead of keeping it in a versatile (able to be used for many applications) condition. the bottom line here is that it is your strap and you can shorten it if you wish.

They are 11 1/2 inches long. I have been very happy with them when I have to load my motorcycle on a trailer they give me a way to connect straps without having to put the hook on the bike.

I can measure next weekend! I bought them for my boat trailer and they fit perfectly. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

16"7". Add 4' to your anchor measurements (2" at each anchor point) for satisfactory installation. Rain and wind will relax (stretch) the sail and you will need to tighten it some. I hope this helps.

there are 3 answers to the dimensions of these hooks and they're all very different... can someone answer this in l x w x h

It should be more than long enough, I have it mounted on a 20 foot Lowe fishing pontoon boat and it works great!!!

I ordered a set of these for my 16' Lund...it has 1 & 1/2" rails (across the top). The clamps open to max 1 & 7/8" and measure 3 inches wide (from bow to stern) and seem to work just fine. You must clamp them down hard since they seem to tip when catching large fish but definitely won't come off the boat!

The total length of the strap is 4 1/2 inches with the hook included in the length. The hook fits into one of the holes. The strap is rubbery / stretchy. Might not fit on a big tube. hope this helps. we are hoping it is more visible than the ones we have.

Depends on the length of your boats. I have 10 footers and I do not I use bunji cords and hook on the carry straps and hook back to the cross bars on my jeep. Boats never move.

Strap itself is about 3.75 inches (I measured one already installed, so that might be a little off.) end fasteners are 1.5" square each, so total length is about 6.75 in.

I'm not sure, for I mounted mine by bolting them thru the 6in. rectangle frame. most trailer frames are 4.5 and some are 5" +.Hope I was some help. My motto is, if you can't make if work, u don't need it.

Get a 2X4 the length of your kayak's width. Cut multiple slots in it and run the straps through. More slots you cut more loops you can make. Make the farthest slots the width of your kayak. The two slots near center where straps exit should be 5 inch apart. Shopped HomeDepot for something ready made. Shelving ,grills. Don't trust those wire weldings. Keep the strap around kayak loosely so you can get the straps on and off easily.I received my hoist this week. Install is a cinch if you follow youtube video for a competitor brand. The ropes are low quality. Easily frayed. Get a 2X4 the length of your kayak's width. Cut multiple slots in it and run the straps through. More slots you cut more loops you can make.

Best way to find out - if you have a 25' tape measure, run it from one end of your trailer to the other. I suspect it will be marginal, but you can also purchase extra wire to splice onto the ends. Use at least 18gauge wire for this. Crimp fittings work great for this. Waterproofing the splices isn't necessary if you disconnect the trailer before launching - the short term exposure shouldn't cause problems. Just remember to hook up again after retrieval.
