Telescopic Boat Hook (Anodized Aluminium, Floating)

This telescopic boat hook pole is a versatile tool for every boater – from yacht captains to dinghy sailors. At a compact 1.2 m length, it stows easily in a locker or under a seat, and when needed it extends to 2.1 m, allowing you to reach distant objects. The aluminium construction is not only lightweight (making it easy to handle even one-handed) but also corrosion-resistant, thanks to anodization – a crucial feature given constant exposure to saltwater and sun.

Uses and advantages:

• Docking and Departing: The telescopic hook is extremely handy during docking – you can snag a cleat or rail from afar, pull a line from the dock, or gently push off from a pier or another vessel to prevent collision. The maximum 2.1 m length gives you extra reach when wind or current makes close maneuvering challenging.
• Mooring Buoy Retrieval: When picking up a mooring, this pole makes the job much easier – the wide plastic hook can grab the buoy’s eye or a thread line without needing pinpoint accuracy on the first try. The hook’s strength lets you pull the buoy or line toward your boat without bending or breaking.
• Rescue and Assistance: If something goes overboard – a paddle, hat, or even a person – the floating pole with its bright hook is highly visible and quickly deployable. It can serve as a means to pass a life ring or line to someone in the water, and you have peace of mind that if you drop it, it won’t sink out of reach.
• Secure Grip and Control: The ergonomic PVC handle at the base ensures comfort and a non-slip grip even when wet. The locking mechanism (twist-lock or cam-lock style) is easy to operate – with a quick motion you secure the telescope at the needed length, with no risk of it collapsing unexpectedly.
• Compact Storage: After use, simply release the lock and slide the inner section back down to a 1.2 m length. This way, the hook pole fits in almost any storage compartment or can be clipped along the rail with boat hook/paddle holders. The materials require minimal care – just rinse with fresh water to wash off salt, and occasionally wipe the tubes for smooth sliding.
• With this telescopic boat hook, you have an indispensable “extra arm” on board that makes many tricky or tedious tasks significantly easier and safer. It’s an essential multi-purpose tool for docking, mooring, and general boating that you’ll reach for time and again.
