Judy spring catch. Brand new, 2nd time using it latch failed on jetski

More Chinese garbage. They also lied and said this housing was made out of stainless and it wasn't. It has decent weight so it feels sturdy and solid but everything around it is weak. I the strap is very thin but decent quality seat belt type. Also the winch is HUGE. Like I get 3200lb capacity but it is nearly double the size of the 600. Now you ask why did I get the 3200 for a jet ski? Simple because this was the only strap one I could find that said it had stainless parts and guess what it doesn't. It's just junky hot dipped nickel/galvanized steel.Anyways, 2nd time using it and when I was launching the ski (putting the latch in neutral. The spring catch for the latch just unwound lol. So the latch won't latch correctly. I tried to fix it but it bent somehow. 😕Overall failed execution. Surprised this was almost 100 dollars new for an item that just fails on so many levels.Probably the good thing is that it did work for a little over 2 launches and it is 2 speed. That is about it.

Pros
  • The safety hook provides a secure hold without damaging your cargo
Cons
  • Strap may need to be frequently replaced if used regularly
