Ramp N Clamp Model L Auto Boat Latch Description

Model L One Inch vs L

Ramp N Clamp Stainless SteelThe RNC Model L boat latch 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 PERIOD. 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.

 

Ramp N Clamp PolyurethaneThe Ramp N Clamp cover is made up of an upgraded Stoltz Polyurethane 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

  5. Dennis Horner

  6. Beatrice Campbell

    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.

  7. Jordan Hatem

    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.

  8. Ron R

  9. Scott D

  10. Keith I

    Love it. Works great

  11. Bob C

    Love mine. Really helps us older guys when reloading our boat by ourselves

  12. David Stamm

    Easy Installation and even more easy to load the 20 foot Cuddy Cabin boat. Had a friend drive the trailer into the water and I just drove the boat up and on and it latched in and everyone who was watching were in amazement. So effortless. Thank you for a great product. I will be buying another for a different boat I own.

  13. John Farmer

    I have been a boat owner for all of my adult life and I am not sure why it took me this long to buy this product but it is a game changer. My advice is if you do not have one go purchase one today. I would give it 10 stars if I could!

  14. Wyatt P

    I have one, it is great if you fish by yourself

  15. John J

    It was worth the money

  16. Randy Leabo

    The first time, loading and unloading went as smoothly as in the videos. Installation was easy; no adjustments were needed after following the installation instructions. You did not need to offload the boat from the trailer to install it.

  17. Randy Leabo

    I bought this product because LINDER’S ANGLING EDGE recommended it!! The first time, loading and unloading went as smoothly as in the videos. Installation was easy; no adjustments were needed after following the installation instructions. You did not need to offload the boat from the trailer to install it.

    I have been using this Model L for the past two weeks now, and can say that it has even helped to center the boat on my trailer (which has been a disaster since day one: Shorelander bunk trailer under my 2021 Lund Crossover XS 1875). The launch time has been decreased noticably (being a fishing guide, that is rather important), and has decreased the amount of time loading (again, very important). My friend, who had the competitors model actually purchased a Boat 2 Trailer model for his boat based on my experience. He is ecstatic with the Boat 2 Trailer model and was extremely happy to get rid of the other competitor model that horribly scratched his boat! My only disappointment is that the lock system is STILL not available. I devised my own lock system since my trailer sits alone all day (6 days a week) while I’m on the water and wanted to remove the temptation from anyone seeing it alone at the landing. For such a great device, I’m very bummed that the lock system is still not available with the estimated availability time continually being moved into the future further. This item is truly one that needs an anti-theft system. This should be priority one for the company, in my opinion. Otherwise, if you are on the fence about this or the competitor model, buy the Boat 2 Trailer model for your boat with complete confidence!

    Had to do a little adjustment on trailer, no big deal. New boat and trailer but was easy to use. Very satisfied. Park close enough to the dock you can step out of boat right to dock. I’m 67 and loving it. Manual handle works best for me.
