Great For Short-Term Use, Shock-Absorbing Dock Buddy Are Dock Lines That s-t-r-e-t-c-h!

Greenfield Products Dock Buddy are shock-absorbing bungee dock lines designed for quick, knot-free temporary mooring. They act like a shock absorber to protect your boat from wake and waves while fueling, loading supplies, or cooking at a dock.

Key Features

• Knot-Free Securing: Features sliding PVC tubes that quickly adjust and lock the loop securely around a dock cleat without tying knots.
• Shock Absorption: Built with an internal bungee cord wrapped in a heavy-duty, loose-weave polypropylene ski rope cover to cushion impacts.
• High Visibility: Available bright  colors, including red, yellow, blue, and black.
• Built-In Flotation: Constructed out of materials that naturally float if accidentally dropped in the water.
• Greenfield Dock Buddies - Strength Rating: Features a breaking strength of 1,100 lbs, making them ideal for small to medium recreation craft.

Sizing and Stretch Profile

Dock Buddies expand similarly to Chinese finger cuffs—the braid compresses and limits the maximum extension to take the load off the internal bungee. They are sold in three distinct lengths:

• 4-Foot Model: Stretches out to a maximum of 5.5 feet.
• 5-Foot Model: Stretches out to a maximum of 7 feet.
• 6-Foot Model: Stretches out to a maximum of 9 feet.

Important Usage Warning

These lines are strictly rated for temporary, day-use docking only (such as visiting a fuel dock or sanitation pump-out). They should never be used for unsupervised mooring or overnight docking, as continuous rough weather can overstretch or wear through the polypropylene cover.

If you are looking for offshore beaching solutions, Greenfield Products also manufactures the Anchor Buddy, a larger-scale 14-to-50-foot bungee anchor line designed to pull your boat safely away from rocky shorelines.

For temporary docking only.
