WRINO HOOK

Australian-based Wright Innovation sent us this novel evolution of a boat hook that allows the user to lasso a piling as well as perform other mooring tricks from the boat without precarious acrobatics.

Adjustable from 3 to 7 feet the telescoping pole is very well made of anodised aluminium with high-density plastic grips and a secure twist lock.

The pole features two hooks at the business end. The smaller hook is well suited for snagging small lines and the larger one good for grabbing mooring balls.

The most interesting additions are a semi-circular line clip at the end and a lasso holder clip, which slides along the pole to change the size of the lasso.

We tried the pole several times while docking and found that with little practise and the right size lines it worked just as it was designed.

It was particularly useful lassoing tall pilings at low tide.

We found lines of half-inch to 5/8-inch diameter worked best.

Selling in the US for $83, including shipping and handling, the pole costs about twice as much as other poles on the market. But it’s also a notch above in terms of quality.

Bottom line: the Wrino clip system performs just as advertised, and the owner of a day sailor or bay boat who must regularly deal with mooring balls or tall pilings at the local slip will appreciate its convenience.
