Comments about Shockles Line Snubber:
At the suggestion of the company I used one rigged with my preventer line on my 36' Catalina. Without the Shockle I was getting a real slam to my boom everytime the wind switched. With the Shockle there was no slamming and my boat was much happier.

I called the company with a question and they gave very prompt and efficient advice.

Comments about Shockles Line Snubber:
I HAD THESE ON ALL MY DOCK LINES DURING A RECENT STORM. WHILE MANY OTHER BOATS AROUND ME GOT SLAMMED AGAINST THE DOCKS AND ENDED UP WITH BROKEN LINES AND OTHER PARTS, THE SHOCKLES KEPT MY BOAT TOTALLY SAFE AND UNDAMAGED. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM.
Service and delivery comments:
I HAD A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS ABOUT THE BEST WAY TO ATTACH THEM TO MY DOCK LINES AND I WROTE THE COMPANY. THE ACTUAL PRESIDENT OF THE COMPANY RESPONDED DIRECTLY TO ME IMMEDIATELY WITH DETAILED SUGGESTIONS. NOW THAT'S GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE!

Comments about Shockles Line Snubber:
I've used these for a couple years on my 44' Beneteau for all sorts of uses. I rig them on my dock lines when in choppy marinas, on my anchor rode to reduce the stress on my anchor and windlass, to reduce wear and tear on my tender when I tow it, and as an addition to my preventer line on the boom. They attach easily and are very well made.
