Mooring Buoy, Winter Stick. TAYLOR 22140 SULLY WINTER STICK. A long tapered buoy used in place of a standard round mooring buoy during the winter months. The Sully Stick has a molded in eyelet at the top for easy retrieval. The base eyelet is reinforced with a galvanized metal bushing to attach a rope and connect to the anchor chain. The shape of the Sully stick helps it escape ice entrapment better than a round buoy and can extend the useful life of a mooring buoy by protecting it from the damaging effects of freezing temperatures. 6" dia. x 60" length.
