You can just ratchet strap to the eyelets on back of each outer pontoon and you already have the safety chain plus the winch strap on the front. Guess you could ratchet strap to the front eyelet of each outer pontoon, just don't overdo it. Snug it up and check it at your stops as it might need snugging after some milesView attachment 21915

For the back, can't you just run the strap straight down from the eyelets and attach to your trailer that way? Yes it will be going over the transducer / accessory bracket, but it will be fine as long as you just snug it. Or better yet, just mount a couple of the straps on an angle towards the middle of the trailer and the brackets won't be in the way at all.I’ve done the back the best I can. If I run from the rear eyelet on the tube the strap would cross the metal brace for the bunks. That’s scary. On a previous trip I used a smaller straps on the front, but I was pulling with my Expedition. The motorhome bounces much more so I went with a larger strap.
It looks like an express tooon boat not an SPS/ESP hullHey guys.....In the first pic of Dannys boat is it my eyes or is the center tube not touching or being supported by the bunks on the trailer?????
But shouldn't it still be supported/touching???It looks like an express tooon boat not an SPS/ESP hull
That’s just a freaking cool boat !!You can just ratchet strap to the eyelets on back of each outer pontoon and you already have the safety chain plus the winch strap on the front.

Agree. Must use heavy duty ratchet straps from the eyelets from the boat directly to the trailer....I for 1 wouldn't trust that rear strap setup.
No the back motor pod is much more compact, it’s. Basically a triple toon trailer to offer support to the 3/4 tube, that motor pod will never touch unless you have a catastrophic issueBut shouldn't it still be supported/touching???
After all this have you ran it back to the place you bought it from? Most places that sell trailers will offer you the correct advice on how to tie down what you’ll be hauling plus sell you anything additional you may need. Looking through your picks again that’s a really sweet trailer let alone not inexspensive and I can’t believe that thing wouldn’t be set up with the correct tie downs from the start! 90% ofbthe time just the rear tie downs and the strap are more than enough.So today for the first time we trailered the Benny behing our motorhome. Quickly realized that I must tiedown the front and rear. So I’m needing your suggestions. I leave Friday for the Keys (300 miles). Your suggestions appreciated.
Here’s pics of the front and back straps.
