TideMinders, a system of nine virtually indestructible balls to control mooring lines. Threaded onto the line and secured with fig- ure-eight knots, the durable balls roll up and down with the flow as the water changes levels, removing the need to adjust mooring lines. TideMinders protect line up to one inch thick. The string of balls offers constant tension with built-in shock absorption. www.dr-shrink.com
