Product Description
Dockmate Ultimate Whips offer a "plug and socket" design that allows quick and easy separation of the two halves for storage. Ultimate Whips also feature the unique rocker base. These aluminum adjustable bases incorporate a rubber shock absorber into their design for a greater range of movement. When tension is released, the whips will retract into a vertical position, eliminating the need to remove them in order to clear masts, fly bridges, or wake towers. All Dockmate Mooring Whips come as a pair with all necessary lines and hardware to complete installation. Note that some docking conditions may be too rough for this type of system. 4-year warranty. |

Comments about Dockmate Ultimate Mooring Whips, 14':
We have a permanent floating dock in the Mississippi River for our newly purchased tri-toon pontoon. We have a lot of barge and some pleasure craft traffic. WE installed them in ten minutes. Holds toon steady and clear of dock rash when the barges pass. Friends will be purchasing soon for their 31 ft Chris Craft after seeing these in use. Go Overton's!

Comments about Dockmate Ultimate Mooring Whips, 14':
Ordered on line[...] I assembled and installed them at my dock within 45 minutes and what a difference in their quality and the function. From now on I am purchasing ALL of my Marine needs from Overton's instead of the local Marine stores at Lake Winnipesaukee, NH. Thank you Overton's!!!Michael Quinn

Excellent quality
Comments about Dockmate Ultimate Mooring Whips, 14':
These whips rated for a 10,000 boat were unable to hold my 5,500 boat away from my dock in a moderate breeze. Make sure of your mooring conditions before ordering.

Q:
All the pictures show the whips attached to stationary docks. I have a 21 ft Malibu, a floating dock and fairly substantial boat wake traffic. Are there any issues using this mooring whip system I should be aware of?Asked on 7/26/2009 by Clint from Anniston, AL1 answer
CUSTOMER CARE
A:
Yes you should definately consider a different mooring system if you have steady wake traffic and if you do not have a stationary dock. These will hold boats away from docks as long as there is not a lot of movement from the boat. Constant wake waves though will cause the boat to constantly rock back and forth which can weaken the whips over time. In short I would recommend considering stow-away hold-aways or wake watchers mooring systems which are similar to the whips just not as tall.Answered on 11/11/2009 by OVERTON'S from TECHNICIAN
Q:
I have a Malibu 25 ft not sure of weight..I am considering getting the 20,000 pound (Largest) Can you get whips that are to big/heavy duty?Asked on 5/26/2009 by Anonymous1 answer
CUSTOMER CARE
A:
I don't think there is any downside other than they may flex less which may cause the boat to be little harder to pull toward the dock.Answered on 5/27/2009 by Michael from Overtons
