To get optimal performance from your L & R Boat Latch (and the ease and simplicity of launching and retrieving your boat!), you need the correct angle where the latch meets the snare. The โWedgeโ lets you do that even if your trailer set up isnโt quite right!
You can also just use the ‘Latch Support’ on its own if the latch is sitting out โin spaceโ with no backing support and no surface to mount the front latch bolt.
Not every boat and trailer set up is the same. But to get great performance on your launch and retrieval you need the correct angle where the latch meets the snare. With the โWedgeโ you can change the angle by 14 degrees either up or down. This allows you to optimise the performance of your boat latch and be the envy of other launchers at the ramp!

To help you work out the angle you can refer to our Downloadable Installation Guide which sets out how to measure step by step. You can also refer to Step 5 on our Installation Process page.
The optimal angle between the snare and the latch is approximately 15 degrees. If your angle is between 1 and 29 degrees, the Wedge Kit can help you adjust to the correct angle.
In general, the Wedge Kit is very easy to install and use. Refer to the detailed instructions in our Installation Guide. We also have Approved Installers we can recommend or your preferred trailer or boat team can help.

โThe launch and retrieve system is an absolute beautyโ
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 Iโm 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.
โBoating at the ramp cannot get any easierโ
Itโs 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.

โI am now the envy of boat ownersโ
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.
