Just purchased some boat buckles and installed them yesterday. I think they are going to work well for me. It's hard as I'm getting older to get under my boat and attach ratchet straps. The buckles seem to be easy to use.
I read a review that was written about three years ago. It said to throw away the hardware and buy some from your local hardware store. I should have listened. I tried to use the hardware and the nut threaded on just beyond the end of the bolt and then locked up. It wouldn't come off. I had to cut it with a grinder.
Just wondering if anyone has used boat buckles and if you like them? Have you had the same issues with the hardware?
