ABSTRACT:
A spring-loaded coupling mechanism includes a tubular housing having an internal cavity, a forward end, a rearward end, and a tapered forward portion and further includes a catch member which is connected to a first elongate support member and is biasedly seated in said tapered portion of said housing, the first elongate support member being attached to an object, and also includes a connecting member which is attached to a second elongate support member and which is extendible and releasably securable inside the housing with the second elongate support member being substantially taut and being attached to another object. This spring-loaded coupling mechanism easily and conveniently ties at least two objects together such as a boat being moored to a dock or on a trailer.
