Essential Features
- Light weight (220g, 7 ounces), so easy to take on your charter holiday.
- Heavy enough to sink, even if 'floating' lines are used.
- Strong enough for adverse conditions (tested to over 1 tonne load).
- Very high spec light alloy
- strong and will not rust.
- 18mm diameter holes so they can accept most lines that you are likely to have on board without needing a shackle.
- Extended arm assists grabbing the chain in the first place and upward slope helps to retain it.
- The trip-line hole is located to allow the hook to be steered towards the chain and keep the hook 'open'. It is also located so that it requires a modest pull to activate the trip action and therefore minimise the chances of an accidental 'trip'.
- Size approx 200mm x 150mm (8in x 6in).
