Buoycatcher UK‑Made Thermoplastic Boat Hook
The Buoycatcher boat hook is a premium, purpose-built tool engineered for demanding marine environments. Proudly manufactured in the United Kingdom from 100 % recycled thermoplastic, this boat hook combines sustainability, strength, and practicality for boaters who expect lasting performance.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Domestic manufacturing & eco materials
The hook assembly (excluding the pole) is produced in the UK using injection‑moulded recycled thermoplastic, ensuring exceptional durability, consistent quality, and reduced environmental impact. -
Robust, seamless construction
Designed with no hollow cavities and moulded over a stainless steel threaded core, the hook resists warping, cracking, or failure under heavy use. -
Push & pull capability
The head features strong jaws in both directions, ideal for pushing off docks or retrieving lines, buoys, or floating gear.n -
on‑marking rubber foot option
A soft rubber foot is available to attach to the tip, enabling firm, non‑slip contact with hulls or docks without scratching surfaces. -
Threaded compatibility
The hook head is fully compatible with Buoycatcher’s telescopic poles via a 316 marine‑grade stainless steel threaded insert — allowing secure, modular assembly. -
Resilient in saltwater
The thermoplastic material is formulated for marine use, with resistance to UV, salt, and impact, while the stainless interface ensures corrosion resistance where mechanical stresses concentrate.
