Mooring has never been easier
The GHOOK consists of a handle with an inserted rolling wheel and a safety latch. Additionally, a tow rope can be adjusted for even easier handling.
Due to its simple use it could be used by different crew members on different type of boats.
Clean Hands and Decks
With a connected tow rope to GHOOK, the mooring line can be transferred at lower position, under the boat gunwale without any fear of it touching the boat’s fenders.
Mud and shells attached to the mooring line, will fall into the water instead of onto the deck. Holding the GHOOK instead of the rope also protects the crew’s hands and provides a much smoother and speedy mooring experience.
Transfer Up to 3-times Faster
The mooring speed is particularly cruical in the case of windy conditions, which can cause drifting, possible collisions, hand injuries – or at the very least – a lot of stress. For that reason the GHOOK design is now providing the optimal speed and strength performance. Special attention went into minimizing the friction caused by overgrown ropes. Algae and shells do not present an obstacle to the GHOOK.
When compared to traditional mooring, using the GHOOK accelerates the mooring process by up to 3 times.
- Resistant G-shape Frame
The GHOOK’s shape and material are designed to provide maximum performance. The GHOOK was purposely produced from plastic to prevent any form of damage to the hull during use.
- 7 cm (2¾”) Wide Rotating Wheel
The GHOOK’s rotating wheel is suitable for mooring lines of any size as well mooring lines that have become heavily overgrown.
- Stainless Steel Safety Latch
The GHOOK’s safety latch prevents the mooring line from slipping out of the GHOOK during its transfer.
- Ergonomic handle
The GHOOK’s ergonomic handle provides the best grip possible allowings you to use it with one hand only.
- Opening for Optional Rope Extension
The GHOOK’s opening allows you to tie on a rope extension to enhance the GHOOK’s performance.
GHOOK Application
The GHOOK as it is
You can use the GHOOK by directly holding onto its ergonomic handle. Using the GHOOK without a rope extension is only suitable for smaller vessels.
The GHOOK with a rope extension
You can tie a rope extension to the GHOOK and enable the transfer of a mooring line under the gunwale while also avoiding fenders.
The GHOOK using a swivel at the bow
You can use the GHOOK even when nobody can assist you. Just set a rope along the vessel through a swivel at the bow and tie it to the GHOOK.
GHOOK Use
Set the GHOOK
Open the GHOOK’s safety latch and place the mooring line on the GHOOK’s rotating wheel.
