I understand that! I really enjoy your build thread. Thanks for sharing it. 

I sent an email to [email protected], I used the link from their site, and got a bounce back of “invalid address rejected by server”.

Can anyone provide a valid email or update on them?

Thanks

My attention wanders when the price for a pretty block of aluminum is a brand new surf board. Lol

Same thing as the Danik brand, but it is branded different. I have both and they are identical except the cast in brand, came in same packaging with different labels. 
 

As for the OP, I would strongly recommend if you want to make things easy for guests, I recommend you learn about spring lines. That should handle 95% of what you might need help from someone with regardless of what type of docking situation you have to deal with. Properly set, that should keep you from hitting the front of the dock, twisting away from a side dock. Once you have that single loop on a dock cleat, then you can properly tie up your boat with multiple lines. I personally would never rely on any guests to make sure my boat is tied regardless of experience. 

"realease lever". Maybe a knockoff from a different country? The "learing center"?

I think I've seen some posts on here about it before but I think the first hiccup is getting one. I've read that malibu won't sell you one. I guess they want you to buy one with a new boat attached already.
