Davis Instruments Shockles DockShockle Owner's manual

  • I've reviewed the product details for the Shockles line of products, including the DockShockle, LineSnubber, AnchorSnubber, FenderFriend, LineGrabber, and MiniShockle bungee cords. These products are designed to reduce shock loads on boats, docks, and other equipment. I am ready to answer your questions.
  • What is the DockShockle designed for?
    What is the maximum stretch of the DockShockle?
    Can the DockShockle be used on towing lines?
