ABSTRACT:
A manually operated device to aid in docking a boat by clasping a dock bollard or in clasping other stationary pole-like objects. This invention comprises two outwardly rotating semicircular jaws, linked by a linkage mechanism, that clasp together and latch together to encircle an object such as a dock bollard or stationary pole. Release of the bollard or pole is accomplished by twisting the clasping device so that the sides of the jaws detach themselves from the latching position.
