  • Publication number: 20070283868
    Abstract: A raft tether anchor provides an attachment point for securing a length of line to a raft having one or more cup holder wells. The raft tether anchor comprises hitch means and a compressible resilient body. The hitch means includes a post with an upper end having an eyelet and a lower end having a transverse base. The body has a central bore for receiving the post and a recess for receiving the base in flush relation to the body. The body is designed so that the upper end of the post protrudes from the bore and exposes the eyelet. The body may be compressed, inserted into a cup holder well on a raft, and allowed to expand into frictional engagement within the well. The eyelet is designed to receive a line to be tied for tethering the raft to prevent drifting.
