ABSTRACT:
A stake for mooring a boat comprising an elongated ground piercing stake having a handle at the upper end and a plurality of spaced holes between the lower ground piercing end and the handle. An apertured plate is pivotally mounted to the stake by an elongated securement member mounted in one of the holes and an elongated flexible rope is secured to the aperture in the plate. The rope terminates in a releasable hook. The hole in the stake is selected depending on the depth of ground penetration desired. The hook is connected to the bow of the boat to be secured and the stake is pulled to a selected mooring location and the stake is inserted into the ground by holding the handle and pushing down with one's foot and the elongated flange securement member until the latter abuts against the ground. In this manner, the tethered boat is secured in a desired mooring location.
