The L & R Boat Latch Kit offers an innovative solution for launching and retrieving your aluminium boat quickly and easily whether it’s in the lake, river, ocean, or wherever else you might fancy. Designed by boaties (and engineers) for boaties, and made from durable marine grade 316 stainless steel that requires no strings, wires or electronics, the latch kit has been on-the-water tested by serious boat users for over 15 years.

With the L & R Boat Latch you’ll launch and retrieve with such ease that you’ll be the envy of everyone down at the ramp – and you’ll stay dry doing it. Even better, you can launch and retrieve your boat on your own, meaning you can use it more often and more easily every time.

  • Snare to suit Aluminium Towing Eye
  • OPTIONAL EXTRA: Wedge Plate Kit
  • OPTIONAL EXTRA: Roller Extender Kit

“The launch and retrieve system is an absolute beauty”

I have got to say that the launch and retrieve system is an absolute beauty. I quite often launch and retrieve my boat by myself and it makes the start of the fishing trip dry and hassle free and at the end of the day I’m in and away whilst others are getting wet, cold and frustrated. After a year or more of use it is blemish free and a testament to the quality of the stainless used and the build quality.

“Boating at the ramp cannot get any easier”

It’s three years since I installed the Release and Retrieve Boat Latch to my 5.5 metre AMM plate boat and another to a 7.4m AMM Tournament boat.Boating at the ramp cannot get any easier, simpler or expedient utilising this boat latch. While everyone else is doing battle with winch handles, ropes and chains. I am either boating over the horizon or on the way home.

“I am now the envy of boat owners”

Hi Guys, I bought one of your latches from your stall at the Brisbane Boat Show this year to install on my new 560c Barcrusher. The installation of it was so easy. No spacer plates or extra welds were needed as it fitted perfectly. I am now the envy of boat owners at the Hervey Bay Boat Club ramp as I launch and retrieve my boat by myself with ease.
