An anchoring device is provided that is adapted to tether a structure to a fixed support, such as a dock or floating kelp. The anchoring device comprises a reel assembly that enables a user to secure their boat without the use of an anchor. The assembly includes a reel housing, a retractable line, a clamp assembly, and a line guide. The reel housing comprises a pair of control buttons, a gripping handle, and an attachment strap. The first button is adapted to unlock and lock the retractable line in place, whereas the second button is adapted to retract the line back into the housing. The clamp assembly is adapted to secure the anchoring device onto a fixed or floating surface, whereby the clamp assembly comprises a first and second clamp member in biased relationship with one or more of peripheral teeth, inner tines, and a high friction inner surface.
