LEVEL FLOTATION
Your large boat benefits from the added perimeter buoyancy, which works hard to keep your flooded vessel from capsizing.
FREEDOM TO MOVE
Get great stability with a Kapten Boat Collar. Boarding and trips ashore are so stable and dry, you've never known such comfort. Go snorkeling & easily climb back in!
COMFORT & CONTROL
With your ride soft and dry, you'll not only feel like you're in a bigger boat, but the handling through chop, wake and waves will make you feel like you're in a different boat altogether.

Alternative, Chemi/mig-weld method
Perfect for boats with little to no internal access, such as boats with high, sealed decks, or large inner-wall storage compartments.
The Collars are fitted entirely FROM THE OUTSIDE, with NO SCREWS THROUGH THE HULL, except the bow plates, so no internal access is needed.
This system requires box-sections to be mig-welded to the hull's side at 350mm centres.
Depending on boat weight & speed, additional reinforcement to the hull may be needed, by way of a reverse chine extension bar (RCEB) which sits under the Collar at the bow (pictured 1st right).
CW Collar $2,499 + Max Strength CW fixings $1,098 = $3,597+ GST =
Total Price for 4.8-5.2m CW Collar
$3,956.70 incl GST
(not including Fitting/Transport).
Collar is a Joined Collar so requires a 3mm thick pair of 2.4m long BC Shields, included in price.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
All kits, when fitted to the boat will add approximately:
Kit 1: 20-25kgs
Kit 2: 25-30kgs
CW kit: 40-50kgs.
Yes, there may be a few pieces of hardware leftover if your boat length is at the smaller end of the range. But it means you'll have plates & screws spare if you ever need it.
The Chemi-weld kits have no left-over hardware, as each kit & Collar is custom made to suit your boat exactly.
Not for the Standard Method. We use your boat's centreline measurement to ensure your kit & Collar length will cover the curve of your boat.
The amount of offcut varies on the boat shape, but you will have some hang out the back of the boat that will need cutting off during installation.
You can send us a photo of your boat if you'd like help choosing the best size & option for your boat.
But the CHEMI-WELD method does require exact measurements, yes.
