Do any of you guys know the name of the white bungee cord used for anchoring in rough water? If so, is there any to be found for sale? I think the fella that made them was from Berlin, not a 100%. THANKS

Yup, sorry I don't make them anymore. We have a family business that just takes up too much of my time now.

The original Drop N Stay's I got from Rich are locked up in my gun safe.

There is a guy marketing a similar product on the Outdoor channel recently. Or maybe it's on Fox Sports North. Anyway it might be Anchor Shock?

Anchor shock is a far superior product to the GPAS.

The crimps. GPAS uses Hog Rings and they will fail quite easily. I tried them as they would have been 1/30th the cost of the custom Stainless Steel rings I used. Anchor Shock also uses a higher end cord. I like the GPAS design but they are lacking big time on the quality of components. I have other things but better keep them to myself
