No, because I've seen people drop them in the water. It shouldn't be
used
for that anyway. It's not designed for that kind of weight.

Group,

A question: Doesn't any one use a BOATHOOK in a slip?

It is a very handy thing in a tight situations, it can hold the
stern
against prop walk.

With a crew, it is a simple matter to enter and leave a slip using
Neutral as the gear of choice. Simply walk the boat away from the
slip,
push the bow into the desired direction and power away,
