Hi there,
I've come across this post:
http://gadgetsailinginspector.blogsp...moor-fast.html

"If you've ever cursed at your crewmen, your wife or even yourself for
not being able to hook a line at a mooring buoy, marina cleat, pile
mooring, etc, then you need this very ingenious gadget.
MooR FasT® threads a rope through a buoy ring or marina cleat up to 2
metres away from the safety of your deck and brings it back on board.
It will even scoop up rings and shackles that lie flat."

Q1:
Has anyone used this device?

Q2:
Does it really work?

Thanks.

A guy in the next slip to me had one and said it worked fine. He
bought it because many buoys in Europe apparently do not have a
mooring line, just a ring on the top.

From the looks of the thing he had it for a year or more, stored in
clips on one shroud.
