Patent attributes
A floatable, portable rope or extension cord holder for paying out, taking up and storing rope, line or power cord and especially suited for water ski rope. The device comprises an elongated hollow tubular base and two hollow tubular rotatable winding arms attached to the base at either end by a coupling assembly. The tubular shape of the base allows for the use of clips for releasable attachment to a structure such as a garage wall or boat deck. To load and store line, rotate winding arms to the closed position and wrap using a figure-8 cross-over pattern making a safe, neat, tangle free and compact storage. To release and remove line, rotate one arm to the open position removing from one wrap to all wraps in a single movement. Whether tossed or pulled the entire length of rope or cord stored in the figure-8 pattern will uncoil tangle free.
