ABSTRACT:
A boat mooring device connectable into a suitable hole formed into the deck of a boat, the device including a deck plate, a trunnion connected and extending from the unexposed surface of the deck plate, and a spring loaded rope wheel rotatably mounted about a transverse axis at the other end of the trunnion. The device is structured so that rope stored on the rope wheel may be payed out from, or retracted unto, the rope wheel through an aperture in the deck plate as desired. Thereafter, pivotally closing a draw lever hinge connected atop the deck plate's exposed surface activates a spring loaded pawl which lockably engages into one of a plurality of notches formed into the periphery of the rope wheel. When the device is in its closed and locked position, a relatively smooth and uninterrupted surface with the boat deck is provided, the locked mooring rope extending out through the deck plate aperture a desired length for connection to a dock or the like.
