Mooring pins


Arthur Marshall

Featured Posts

I used to have a ‘nappy pin’ permanently spliced to a 4’ or 5’ (depends how high your boat is out of the water) rope with an eye spliced the other end. Leave the eye permanently on the front t stud and makes single-handed mooring a doddle - just drop in the pin and walk back to the stern. To make life even easier I had another pin fixed to about 16’ of rope for the stern - drop in the pin, loop the rope over the rear dolly and tighten up as needed. No fiddling ropes through the eye etc.

But but... you'd have to be on another boat, or wade in the water to take that picture angle :detective:.

Ahhh right... I'm following you now ? - I thought Arthur had posted the pic. Just couldn't understand how he could have taken the pic from his boat.

 

As you were... ?
