WARNING
Figure 3-75
Trailer Hook-Up
L.8 Securing the
Boat to the
Trailer
Before taking the trailer and boat into tow, you must first ensure that the
boat is properly secured to the trailer. Damage to the boat and trailer
could result if the two are not connected.
Tie-down straps must be attached and tightened between the pad-eyes found
on the boat and trailer prior to transporting the boat. Placement is as
follows:
• One on each side of the transom (Figure 3-76),
• One on each side forward (Figure 3-77),
• Below the fore deck and
• A strap attaching the trailer eyebolt to the trailer (Figure 3-78).
Tie-downs shall be rated for at least 6,000 lbs., and be the same style and
model as the issued tie-downs that came with the EZ Loader Trailer.
The bow of the RB-S / HS should remain 1 to 2 inches away from the bow
stops when properly trailered. (Figure 3-79)
The winch strap shall not be used as a tie down and not exceed light strain.
Do not exceed the maximum weight rating on the trailer. Exceeding the maximum
rating voids the manufacturer’s warranty and may lead to failure of the trailer causing
damage to the boat and creating an unsafe towing condition.
