Inc. Boat Mooring Snubber

We have been using these snubbers for about 3 months now. They work great! We have a 40 ft yacht and we live on it. The rope we are using with the snubbers is 3/4 inch. We bought four to use on each side and end of the boat. We live in a marina in Southern California, so we don’t get extreme weather, but we definitely have surges in the marina. All of a sudden you will feel a hard jerk on the boat. Since we live on the boat, we are familiar with the surges that come and go with the tide all day and night. We bought the snubbers because of a recommendation from the people living in our slip right before us. We are a little more exposed to the open ocean than other slips in the marina, so more susceptible to the wind. We can definitely feel the difference since we put them on. The snubbers takes some of the shock so it doesn’t put the full impact on the cleet. I have read other reviewes saying that they wore out quickly, but we have not seen any deterioration in the time we have had them.Would definitely buy them again to absorb the shock of the surges in the marina.
