The Amazon reviews look quite good - actually slightly larger than it looks - looks secure enough

yeh i think it's hold plenty, the problem is if it will fit a d3 detachable slot,,,
I've got a mate coming tonight with an F150 LIghtning that has the US style detachable tow bar,
would it stand to reason that if my tow ball fits his socket that it'd work? one wife.......livid

Why don't you take your key surfing? The key is waterproof. It went kayaking with me often and I do swim quite a lot next to my boat instead of sitting in my boat... Some people get by
With a little understanding
Some people get by
With a whole lot more
I don�t know
Why you gotta be so undemanding

is it REALLY waterprrof? even if it is salt would soon play it's part,
TBH i dont want anything that could stab me anywhere near me in the water... i have a safe that locks underneath but i have to lie down on the floor everytime and get under the car which is not good for my suits...
thanks DG..  one wife.......livid

Dont forget most car insurance policies exclude theft of the vehicle if the keys are left in or on it, hidden or not. It will be no use trying to explain to your insurance company how secure the safe was when the car has gone - along with the key!
