New Boat Toy

Headed out to Angel Island this weekend on my first mooring buoy attempt and on my boat there is no option of picking up the buoy from the back and walking it forward. I was looking around the marketplace for the best option and decided on the new Robship Hook & Moor product.



Not the cheapest option but pretty happy with it so far. Appears very well made and a neat design. It passes you line through the moor ring and brings it back to the boat. I've seen it online for awhile but hadn't seen any reviews. After the weekend I'll give you my 2 cents worth. I did get the model that extends about 12 feet as I'm all on 10ft plus off the water at the bow. I'd be interested to hear results from anyone that has one. Mine ended up by around $150 delivered from Amazon, but the way it is built I'm pretty happy with that price.

If anyone is out at Angel Island Sun-Tues stop on by
