ABSTRACT:
A connector for releasably securing a first article, such as a part of a boat, to a second article, such as a boat bumper. The connector comprises a generally flat elongate flexible strap having first and second faces, first and second end regions, and an intermediate region between the end regions. The connector further comprises securing members adjacent the first end region for connecting the strap to the first article. The securing members include first and second releasably mateable fastening panels fixed to the first face of the strap for forming a first loop around the first article. The first fastening panel is fixed to the first face of the strap adjacent the first end region and the second fastening panel is fixed to the first face of the strap at the intermediate region. The first fastening panel is selectively mateable with any one of several portions of the second fastening panel along a predetermined range of the intermediate region so that the size of the loop can be varied. The securing members further includes a member for securely locking the first fastening panel to any selected portion of the second fastening panel. The connector further comprises a mechanism adjacent the second end region for connecting the strap to the second article.
