We have used the rubber snubbers on 5/8" dock lines on the bow for 10 
years, and they're still going strong. They help to keep the boat 
positioned in the slip. You can snub the lines up fairly tight, and the 
rubber snubbers will have enough give and take to absorb the force of 
wind and current.
