SHORE HITCH SCAM

[gqchris]

I'd rather pay extra to a local business than give to china

I agree! I own a genuine Sand Spike. Had it for years. Works amazingly well.

Same thought process for another expensive shitty product but people buy stupid shit everyday

 

[rivermobster]

Sounds similar to what I use, it was in my Carrera when I bought it. It works great. Light and takes up no room. And the bungee style rope keep tention on the boat so the current don't bother it

2 box anchors. 2 sand anchors. No problemo.
The toon is a huge sail. I typically use 2 spikes. 1 in the front. 1 on the wind side if it's blowing across the beach.

The box anchors works. But I've always planned on building a better slightly lighter one. Or drilling the one I have in a bunch of places to lighten. Some day....

There's one at the bottom of steamboat, had to cut it free after a hour of yanking a few years back

 

[SCHIADATROUBLE]

For years I used a painted section of angle iron i drilled a hole in and attached a clevis. I cut the end like a wedge, but no top to it.

Now I use the top half of an anchor rod 20" long galvanized with the end ground to a point, and a 10 lb sledge. the wife made a heavy duty canvas bag I've carried that on the "new" boat for 20 years. every so often I hit the exposed end with paint to knock down any rust. Seems to hold along Parker pretty decent.

Do you attach it to the boat with a down guy and Johnny ball?

Don’t forget the guy marker, I’d hate for someone to trip over his rope.

I'm cheap, and that is about the cheapest beach anchor I could come up with, I have two velcro straps mounted that hold the bag nice and tight.

Drilling the sides is a great idea to lighten it up, none of the side helps it be an anchor.

… For decades at Pine flat and a few other lakes… Couple of guys would go scout out a very large rock… Bring it back down maybe 15 or 20 feet from short…wrap a ski rope around it…tie the other end to the ski tow or bow eye(depending)… problem solved for the day… very seldom left the boat in the water overnight… much later on when I went further up the Feather River than any V Drive had ever been… I tied my Hallet Flatty to a tree on shore… I slept like a baby that night… an adventure I will never forget,..

 

[v6toy4x]

I got this one from West Marine many years ago.
I think it was $75
I like the 2 handles.
Can't read the brand on it.
I need to send it out and have it polished lol

What are you building let’s turn this thread positive.

21ft Ultra Shadow closed deck, jet (same as a TPR Steath or like a Daytona) with a blown 572. Guessing it should make 950 to 1000HP. Its a 2024, never rigged, NO holes.. Going to BLR after Memorial to start rigging and bounce back and forth between BLR and Shockwave for rigging and interior. Boat pics are from the ad, its sitting on a new trailer now...... Gonna order a lime green Shore Hitch for it when its all done....

 

[NicPaus]

That the one Eddie had for sale?

Can we get the whole picture up, can't tell if her bottoms match the tank.LOL

 

[JFMFG]

Seriously, very wild... A $250 one time purchase product to throw in their $250k boat that takes $500 in fuel to drive up to Pirates and spend $700 on nachos and beer... priorities I guess. Hahaha. I guess Im in the minority on this, love mine, works great for me, and I will buy another one for my boat that is currently being built when it is finished.

Honestly, 75% of the time I just tie up tp a tree/bush or boulder if there's one near shore.

Nice little chassis on that sweet little hotrod, even has a real nice stance. Makes the product somehow seem.even better..

I'm pretty sure Ryan and Slide Anchor were the very first sponsor of Desert Storm (back then it was the "Heatwave"). Each year I looked forward to seeing him and his mother Fran there.

And just as you describe, I watched him do the same for numerous customers. Such a stand-up guy and company.

 

[Flatsix66]

Is this some twisted logic reverse psychology @2FF type thread to get me to buy a SlideAnchor?

 

[Outdrive1]

Now that this thread has taken a hundred different turns. Looking back at the title, I think “scam” isn’t warranted. Maybe ShoreHitch troubles with customer service. I don’t think they are pulling a scam however. That’s a little ridiculous.

I agree. OP was offered a free replacement to take care of the damaged product, which is a sign of good customer service.

So many ppl fell for the bling and “fancy” marketing, in reality the OG slide anchor spike works and this one looks good for pictures, also not a fan of the design theft.
