- The telescoping boat hook pole may be the most useful and regularly used accessory on your boat. If you're a new boater and you don't have one of these, this video shows what they're used for and why a boat hook pole is essential. A boat pole is useful for docking and also for pushing off when launching. The one I have is a telescoping floating boat hook pole from West Marine.

I'm getting older and not so steady on my feet as I used to be. I use it to help me get out of the boat as well. Stepping from a floating boat to a floating dock can be difficult for me. I just hook to the other side of the dock, and pull myself out.
Hello Wayne
Happy new year to you and your family. This boat pole was the first item I got when I began my boating life. 😎
Wise choice! I have been lucky that mine floats on more than one occasion. (but usually because a friend is using it)
Thank you for sharing. We will buy one.
Yes, helpful in so many ways: hooking a cleat, holding off a boat, picking up a mooring ball line - I would say 'moored at the marina' or 'in /at my berth'. The only parking my boat does would be on a trailer behind my car :)
Nice explanation...I always wondered about that...great idea!
Love the video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I sure enjoy your videos. Thanks.
Glad to hear it - thank you!!
Hi Wayne! I just bought a 30-foot sailboat and I don't know how to sail! I will be sure to pick one up!
Thanks for watching!! Lots to learn if you're going to be sailing! But so rewarding when you catch some wind!
thank you!!!
Thank you for watching!!
I have created a playlist of videos specially designed for new boaters - with new videos posted regularly!

Nice video. as usual!... BTW, I think we're docked at the Marina, not parked.
Docked at the marina 🤣 nice video
Thanks 😅
It’s called being docked, btw I love the vids
We call it berthed
I want to know if it would be useful for folding the ladder back up instead of getting down on all fours and reaching down to raise it back up.
Neat idea - I have to try that!
How long is your pole?
Does it float?
Wow
Also great for retrieving your hat!!!
TRUE!! lol
I need one of those boat hook plastic ends, but with a internal threaded screw instead of being attached to the pole by a revit, as I have an extending pole which is threaded, this pole I use for my hard & soft boat cleaning brushes, plus if I have to retrieve something from the drink, I also can attached a kids fishing net. LALIZAS used to make these, but I can’t find one on there website, does anyone know where I can purchase 2 or 3 threaded boat hooks ?
I wonder if they don't use the screw on type because they can unscrew so easily when you're using the pole.
If you haven’t purchased a boat hook yet, look up Super Stick. It’s a combo push pole/boat hook that you can attach many other accessories. Indestructible and it floats. Plus it’s made in America. $85 on Amazon..
@@duaneegan1230 I know this is forever old but on the model he is showing the yellow tip is removable and threaded for other attachments like a scrub brush
From one Wayne to another, what's your thoughts on your boat hook now. Is there a better one out there, or is West Marine the bees knees?
I think any one of them is ok - especially if it floats! I "like" the telescoping, but sometimes that part fights me.
What is the brand of the pole? I’d like to look for it on Amazon. Thanks
I have an Amazon link to a similar pole in my description!
He says rope and line. It is just called a line.
I had one and wife droped it at the dock, people next to us graped it and took off with it. WTF.
That's messed up!
“Store” he meant marina. It is called a boat hook.
That's what you call a Amateur Pole I've had a 25'ft Sea Ray and a 27' Formula w/twin V8's always had one on the boat but I never had to use it. I docked my boats backing it in it was a lot easier when you have a boat that size. Love your channel you're fun to watch you look and talk a guy work with his name is Larry Jackson are you related to him you could pass as brothers. Can't wait for your next video ciao ciao.
Boats are docked not parked.
you're right!
Never bought one, never will. If you need one of these to dock your boat, get someone to teach you how to do it the right way. 😁👍 It is however useful if you use a mooring buoy.
You must have REALLY long arms. I don't know anyone who can reach all 4 pilings in my boat slip.
@@WayneTheBoatGuy good guess lol I actually do have very long arms 😂. But I mean, I usually just aim, kill power and coast to the dock so I don't need to be at the helm.
My five year old knows more than this rookie.. Nothing to see here…
It would have been easier for me when I was learning if your five year old could have been there to show me. But please let me know when your five year old is running a class.
