Saw it on the neighboring boat and immediately ordered it myself... great!!! No more rattling.... unfortunately the color doesn't quite match, but a spray paint helps. Assembly is child's play
I wanted these to stop the halyards banging on the mast.
They work, but they are not designed for medium-large sized yachts - my boat is 15m.
The tension required in the halyards to keep them in the hooks makes the plastic deform and lose it's shape, especially in the heat (the boat is in the Canaries). The halyards then become lose too and we're back to same problem.
I'm also concerned about the durability of the product in UV light, but so far it's OK.
The conclusion is that they work, but probably better suited to boats up to 12-13m and maybe not in areas of high temperatures.
It's a pity you can't buy bigger ones.
Helpful?

Don't know yet. I'll try these next summer. Product itself is OK and seems to be fairly good plastic quality.
I was hoping it was bigger in size and strength as my boat is a 51 'however it's a good idea, never seen anywhere else and I'll experience what I received next season.
Works well for the lines at the back of the mast.For lines at the front of the mast, you should also be able to attach the hooks there. I don't know if that's possible; the operating instructions do not indicate this.
