Cute idea but not space-efficient.

I coil cords like climbing rope and secure them with Velcro wraps.http://www.textol.com/t_ties.asp
That way several long ones can hang on a peg, instead of taking up
shelf space like reeled cords, which don't stack well.

I think that they're space efficient, but maybe we have different
standards. I think that they're more time efficient because the
storage to use-time is cut down. The product was reviewed by a
boating magazine and they liked it. Many people who use boats are
also concerned with saving space. (However, I'd be worried about
grabbing one of these instead of a life-preserver in an
emergency. )
