Boat hook

A boat hook is a long stick with a hook on the end that helps people who are on a boat to get things that are hard to reach. It's like a big arm that can grab things from far away. For example, if you drop something in the water, you can use a boat hook to scoop it up without getting wet. It's also helpful for tying or untying the boat from a dock, since you can use the hook to loop around the dock post. The boat hook is a useful tool to have around when you're on a boat!
