ABSTRACT:
A support arm is provided including base and outer ends and mounting structure is provided on the base end for mounting the support arm from a boat in a generally horizontally disposed position with the outer end of the support arm projecting outwardly of one side portion of the boat. The outer end of the support arm structure is bifrucated to provide an endwise outwardly opening vertical slot and the support arm includes outer end downwardly projecting and inwardly curving guide structure. Flexible tension member guide structure is mounted on the outer end of the support arm above the slot and guidingly receives an elongated flexible tension member extending generally lengthwise of the support arm. One free end portion of the flexible tension member depends downwardly through the slot and is equipped with anchor member attaching structure on its lower free end. The anchor member attaching structure is engageable with the lower end of the guide structure upon upward movement of the lower free end of the tension member for outward displacement of the anchor member attaching structure and an anchor attached thereto upon further upward movement of the tension member free end and the anchor member attaching structure supported therefrom. Upon final upward movement of the anchor member attaching structure to the upper extremity of the guide structure, further tension of the tension member is operative to inwardly displace the anchor member attaching structure to a position bridging the furcations of the outer end of the support arm for support of the anchor member attaching structure, and thus the anchor member, therefrom.
