The retractor mounts on the deck and pulls out to 36 inches of Kevlar cord, then retracts when you let go. A removable 4-inch tether connects to the item you want to keep secured. The body is made from UV resistant high density polyethylene.

Good to know

  • Pick a mounting spot that lets the cord reach your hand without crossing your casting or paddling area.
  • Rinse the retractor after salt water so the cord keeps pulling and retracting smoothly.

KayakDIY take: Leashing pliers and tools is one of the easiest ways to stop losing gear overboard. For more options, see my fishing kayak accessories guide.
