Davis Instruments Rocker Stopper Boat Stabilizer - 352
Davis Instruments Rocker Stopper Boat Stabilizer - 352 Item # 1780418
Description
Rocker Stoppers help dampen the rocking motion of boats at anchor. Simply tie Rocker Stoppers approximately 18" (44 cm) apart, making a string of them, with a 5-10 lb weight attached at the bottom of the string. Hang one string off each side of the boat. Just four units per side are what it takes on most boats to 36". Be sure you hang them where they will always be underwater. Many people use mushroom anchors with their Rocker Stoppers because this type of weight nests well inside the last Rocker Stopper in your string. Use 3/8" (10 mm) braided nylon or 3-stranded nylon line.
