Sea-Dog Large Boat Hook Mooring Buoy Snap Kit 491058-1, Fits Cleats up to 24 Inches
The Sea-Dog Large Boat Hook Mooring Buoy Snap Kit (491058-1) is a convenient, easy solution for attaching a mooring line to a buoy or cleat without leaving the boat. Using the included keeper plate, the channeled snap fits onto the end of a boat hook or other pole, turning a challenging task into a quick, simple process. This is especially useful on high-bowed vessels: simply reach out with the boat pole, hook the carabiner onto the inside of the attachment point, then pull back on the pole. The carabiner snaps shut as it slides free of the pole, securely clipping onto the mooring eye or cleat.
The kit includes the snap hook, keeper plate, and the fasteners needed to attach the keeper plate. The snap hook is constructed of investment cast 316 stainless steel for corrosion resistance, paired with a stamped 304 stainless steel keeper plate. The large size works on cleats up to 24 inches, and the assembly carries a working load limit (WLL) of 2,185 pounds. Mounting holes are pre-drilled for easy installation.
