4m Sniper: “Now I can turn sharply on the plane”
“Before fitting the boat collar, our 4 metre Alloy boat was very unstable and any shift of weight of the center line or unbalanced weight would cause the boat to tilt down to the gunwale. Very Dangerous. It limited the amount of passengers we could take with us fishing and crabbing and if we did…
Read More3.8m Stacer: “I’d take the tinny anywhere with the Collar on”
“Boat Collar is awesome. Exceeds expectation. At full-speed, I turned [the tiller] so hard, it’s all I could do to hang on, as the boat just stayed flat and cut brilliantly.”Chop turned to smooth on the way to Maroochy Mouth, and it was gusting to 41km/h at test time. Stable stationary and under way. Bow…
Read More4.8m Express Zephyr with Boat Collar: “Stability…improved immensely”
“The results were fantastic! SO much stability [sic] now. Even when 3 onboard plus a toddler (that’s trust) moved to one side of the boat, there was hardly any tilt or movement. Freedom to move around the boat without movement was such a relief. Even when only 2 were aboard, previously, it was like ‘musical chairs’ to keep the balance. Getting…

Attached is the photo of my wife driving our 3.7m Stacer fitted with a Kapten Boat Collar. We are 9kms east of Dirk Hartog Island, heading for Denham townsite another 30kms east. Jo drove all the way with support from our 7m [mother-boat]. It was her first time driving a dinghy, and she felt safe.…

Well the boat had it’s maiden voyage today up at Wivenhoe dam and we are absolutely rapt with the difference your collar has made. The boat now feels like an eighteen-foot boat at the very least and the stability is beyond all expectations. I am attaching a photo and once again Many thanks to Pat…
Read More3.6m DeHavilland tender: “I could not be more happy with the result your Collar has made”
Your product would have to rank with the great inventions of all time. It has transformed my fairly ordinary Tender into a SUPER TENDER (sometimes I do exaggerate a little).All the same, I could not be more happy with the result your Collar has made to the stability and handling of my little tinny. Michael…
Read More550 Savage Cobia: “With the collar … no worries!!”
I took the boat out for sea trials in Morton Bay with a strong South easterly at about 20 knots the sea was about 600 to 700 mm chop and I travelled straight in to it. Normally I would have to slow down so I would not have the spray into my face!! With the collar…
Read More3 metre tinnie tender with Boat Collar: “Improved our day to day life”
So we have opted not to have an inflatable life raft onboard Aquabat, and there are many reasons for this. We did not make this decision lightly and knew with Dingbat (the tender) being our back-up boat, essentially our liferaft, we would need to add some reinforcements to her to make her extra safe should…
Read More6 metre fibreglass Hooker: “I wish I’d put the Collar on years ago”
We ended up fitting the Collar early in the new year and WOW! What a difference to the boat. No more sideways lean while travelling at speed and the collar cuts the spray back down even with a strong side wind so she’s a much dryer boat. And at rest the stability is awesome. It…
