Post Boat Buckles?
Are boat buckle straps any good? How do they handle dirt/mud and being dipped in and out of water over time? My ratchet straps get hard to open up after a few muddy gravel roads. Are the boat buckles sealed to prevent this?

They are bad azz! I got the big expensive ones on one of my trailers then on my last one I bought the cheaper ones that look like ratchet straps (boat buckle brand) and the worked good for my boat.

Make sure you get stainless steel! Don't get it if it isn't, it will not last.
