    rumor mill.....and not true.

    If you have proof of this, there is a substantial reward.

    No one has claimed it in over 10 yrs cuz it just ain't & hasn't happened.

Scared my brother when he tried to climb onto the boat to get something.

    If they want in, they will get in.......you could have fort knox on the deck, and they will just cut thru the hull.

    Just think how much easier it would have been to just break the latches someone else asked about.

    It’s going to be hard to reason with someone who is a self proclaimed expert. On top of that, someone who has been notified of that every single claim and incident involving a Lok-R-Bar. How could you or anyone else know anything different?

    ...you know what you heard......that'll really stand up in court................


    Well, I know what I have seen, and the company that makes the loc-r-bar had a video out showing how it is not possible, and a standing healthy cash offer for any proof of when it has happened.


    Since you know so much from what you heard, provide them your evidence and collect your money.

    Good one.....only stating what I know from personal experience and what I have actually seen with my own 2 eyes....not what I heard.

    I know what research I did before I got one, and I know what others have said and done on here, I have seen the video, and I have yet to see or hear of verified proof that anyone has successfully used a winch to remove one.

    I can tell ya on my rig, simple physics prevents it from happening, not to mention having enough leverage to actually turn the crank handle with all the friction that is involved means you could beat the world champion arm wrestler.


    read here, starting about #26.......................http://www.bbcboards.net/showthread....=home+made+loc


    As I said before, you can get into anything, if you want to and have time...............just like if someone doesn't agree with you, you can always call them names and try to insult them.

I'm not saying the bar cannot be bypassed, but it won't be in your driveway or at a motel parking lot. It will be when the boat is stolen and in the confines of the thief's shop. The bar is relatively cheap insurance and with that loud-ass alarm on it, there is no way anyone is sticking around trying to get by it.
    That's exactly why I have one. It's a deterrent and a noisy one at that. Any security system can be bypassed, but I'd rather be the one with the bar parked next to the one without.
