I 100% Recommend this product. Took it out on my SUP board and it's so easy, lightweight, and bright green, And when it opens it grabs the bottom of the Lake Rocks, Or whatever it can lock onto. Approx. 8 lbs. With 27.5 feet of rope either a float. Love that it has its own case. And a very sturdy carabiner to hook onto your board. STURDY, RELIABLE, EASY TO RETRIEVE AND PUT AWAY. Had a few people ask me where I got it!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND. held sturdy even with the wind.
