If you transport boats/yachts in and out of the water using a travelift, you probably know what the straps can do that beautiful brand new paint job. Because of customer demand, Global Plastic Sheeting has designed a foam cover for these straps to keep the straps from scratching the finish, regardless of whether it is new, or preserving the finish on a boat not being painted or re-finished.
These foam covers are in 8' sections, with "legs" to help keep them in place. The version being made currently has a 18" flat backbone section between the legs, of ½" thick closed cell foam. Give them a try on your next haulout, and see how you like them!
