Dennis; I like the Carabiner approach, however, I wonder what the loading will
do to these...do you experience much in the way of surges or wave action which
loads them up?
I understand that in a marina or a backwater slip where there might not be much
loading action, but I am on a river where we get constant wave action from
barges and big cruise types..and then there's the current which runs at 4-6
knots in the springtime;
Thanks

OK, moving right along with this thread. As I stated earlier, I use a soft
shackle.
I tried the soft shackle and a spring hook but the spring hook on the soft
shackle hung down under the rub rail and scratched the topsides paint.
The soft shackle isn't as easy as snapping a spring hook. So, a bit of
internet searching found these:

I emailed them to see when red ones would be available.--
