PDB Tested: Danik Hook

Adjustable Fender Hanger & More

Published in the September 2024 Issue April 2025 Feature, PDB Tested, Product Roy Sparks

Instead of breaking into a sweat the next time you need to tie a knot, consider one of the many products offered by Danik Hook. With its products, your rope slides freely through when the Danik Hook lever is pushed down, but is held firmly in place when released. And because it adjusts so quickly, the number of boating uses is truly endless.

The Fender Hanger ($29.95) that is specifically designed for square pontoon rails is much easier than tying knots to adjust the height of your boat fender. We picked up a pair to make docking easier since dock heights vary depending on where you go. Instead of having to untie and tie the fender line each time, a simple push of a button and a tug on the rope and you're in business.

We also picked up its Adjustable Bungee Cord ($13.95) that works the same way so instead of collecting a variety of bungee cords in different lengths, we only need one. Lastly we grabbed the original Danik Hook universal stainless steel hook that started it all and is rated to an impressive 8,000 pounds ($39.95). It also adapts from 3/8-inch to 5/8-inch diameter anchor line, making this quick release adjustable line length anchor hook very versatile.
