An easy-to-use tool for securing your boat off the beach, rocky or shale shoreline. Just drive the tubular handle downward to deliver the spike blade into the ground, then tie your boat off to the attached lower ring. For rock or shale, drive the spike in a few feet offshore where the ground is softer and attach a buoy and line to the top ring. The open, tubular handle will not trap air, water, or debris. Removes as easily as it drives in—by pulling the handle upward. Hot-dip galvanized with a rubber-dipped handle, or all stainless-steel. Includes storage bag.
