Additional Info: 

You are entering a marina berth. As you slow, the wind and tide take over and push your vessel away from the marina finger. Your vessel is now too far away from the finger to safely jump off and secure a mooring line. This is when the operation turns to chaos and your boat and the superyacht next door are both damaged. If only you had been able to get a line ashore, the situation would have been much better. This is where Cleat Captor's unique patented design can save the day! Cleat Captor enables many first time users to safely secure a line ashore from moving boats. Once a line is secured ashore the situation becomes manageable.
