Boat Hooks
The
traditional bronze hook is set into a tapered 6-1/2’ or 8-1/2’
pole which is double varnished to protect it from the weather.
Unlike most boathooks, you'll be proud to leave this one
on deck for people to see.
Our boat hooks are available in three choices of wood to
complement anyboat,shown are Mahogany (left),Walnut (middle) ,or Ash (right). We generally find
6-1/2' is long enough for most boats.
The tapered handle is designed so the boat hook should float
upright if dropped overboard. We're often asked "how do you
know it will float upright?" We dropped twelve Ash boat hooks
off the end of the dock to find out. Nine floated upright
nicely, two floated on their sides, and one went straight
to the bottom. The density of wood, no guarantee but darn
good odds! The mahogany and walnut hooks are lighter density
and should float well.
