A two part rope lock for hooking over the railing of a boat, having a hanger member with a pair of transversely arranged guide hooks at upper and lower ends. A channel is formed by two outstanding flanges at the back of a leg of a rail-engageable hook between the guide hooks for passage of a rope therethrough. The flanges include inclined slots for the slidable non-pivotal attachment of a cam wedge second member that moves at an inclined angle toward the leg of the hanger member. Both the hanger member and the cam wedge member include serrated surfaces so that when the cam wedge is slid downwardly a rope may be clamped therebetween. The rope lock is adjustable by one hand so that the rope may be adjusted to be gripped at different positions, such as for use with a bumper guard attached to a depending end of the rope for placing the guard at different locations on the hull of a boat as needed.
