A boat release apparatus preferably includes a tube body, an actuation rod, and a hook assembly. The actuation rod is sized to be received by an inside perimeter of the tube body. The hook assembly is pivotally attached to one end of the tube body. The hook assembly includes a hook body, a pivot hook, and a release hook. The pivot hook is pivotally attached to one end of the hook body. The release hook is pivotally attached to the other end of the hook body. One end of a release cable is attached to one end of the actuation rod and the other end of the release cable is attached to the release hook. A handle is preferably attached on one end of the actuation rod. Pulling the handle will cause the release hook to retract. However, the length of the release cable may be increased such that it is long enough to be attached directly to the handle, thus eliminating the need for the actuation rod. Preferably, the release hook is attached to a crank hook and the pivot hook is attached to an eye-bolt on the front of a boat.
