Automatic Boat Latch Model L Description
The Automatic Boat Latch Model L is constructed of STAINLESS STEEL to prevent corrosion and help prevent rusting of the boat latch. Stainless Steel holds up stronger than any powder coated steel or zinc plated steel. Highlights to note.
- One of the best and most well-known characteristics of stainless steel is that it is extremely corrosion resistant. Especially known for its durability in salt climate and salt water conditions.
- Holds up INCREDIBLY well in most all climate conditions.
- Stainless steel is an extremely tough and highly durable material with high impact resistance.
- You will NOT be disappointed in the long lasting durability of the clamp.
The Automatic Boat Latch has a protector that is made up of an upgraded Stoltz Polyurethane material to prevent damage to your boat. Stoltz has been known around the world for its superior super roller material and we have upgraded it to an even stronger more resistant protector. 10 times more durable than plastic. Here are key notes to consider about Stoltz Poly.
- Abrasion resistance
- Non-marking, non-staining
- Won’t split or crack, even in extreme cold
- Longer, consistent performance
- Will not flat spot after months of storage
The Automatic Boat Latch Model L is available in a short handle version or a long handle version. Here are a few highlights to note about both before making a decision.

We bought one for our dad and had it installed before his fishing trip which was May 21- 28 he loves it and there where allot of inquiring about it at the launch. Early father’s day gift.

2017 Lund 2021 Impact XS, Bunk Trailer.
RNC model “L” short handle, switched to the “manual” handle
Super fast, easy install, Maybe 10 minutes tops!
Works exactly as advertised. makes loading SO much faster.
Must have for a boat owner in my opinion.
If you boat by your self frequently I would suggest the long handle automatic, in my case I am 90% on the boat with someone driving my truck, so I didn’t need the long handle.
