Grappling Hook



The Grappling Hook is an extremely useful item that can only be found in The Wind Waker. This useful hook can be obtained from Medli and is very beneficial to completing many of your quests and progressing forward. With it you are enabled to target certain objects and swing to them. You can also use this to lock on and steal any hidden treasure an enemy has. The Grappling Hook was said to have been used by the Rito people before they obtained wings.

When use aboard The King of Red Lions, the Grappling Hook becomes a crane, which allows Link to pull up Treasure Chests from the seabed. These can be found beneath the Light Rings, or by using Treasure Charts.

This item paved the way for the Clawshot which is sort of a mix of the Grappling Hook and the Hookshot which also appeared in Wind Waker.
