Probably the most expensive boat hook you can buy but the only one with which I no longer have to lift the whole buoy. In addition, you can easily attach an additional line even in Stutm. In addition, he makes a very robust impression and we really kang. Should be on every boat!
Perfect fit to NEW HOOK & MOOR Telescopic Boat Hook 1.25 to 3.2 m. How ever I had to extend high by using 1cm shim in order to get proper hook clearance.
Very good quality compared to its competitors often having very fragile hooks. This telescopic model up to 3.2m is really perfect for taking a buoy almost upright without breaking your back ... Transport costs a little expensive because it is considered "bulky" given the size that exceeds a metre. But it's still cheaper than all Ship. French who offered it around 250 €
Unfortunately the old model was sent - ((although the NEW model is shown in the catalog and video with a metal ring, attention the old model is with a plastic ring, please ask carefully
The gaffe seems of very good quality but on the 3rd use it came off in 2 pieces. The retaining clip has come loose. Frankly disappointed at this price, especially since I ordered it from Martinique and the price, with dock dues and taxes, has doubled!
After 2 uses, the mechanism is stuck and by pulling a little hard on it it explodes in my hands ... only used for a buoy grip (see the 2 photos) To be used with tweezers, too fragile
As always with orders from SVB, all items were delivered immediately. Unfortunately, the boat hook is far too heavy for my wife and/or my son (12 years old). Unfortunately there is no weight specification, so we didn't expect it. So unfortunately we have to send it back.
