Mooring

Mooring refers to the process and systems used to secure a vessel, such as a ship or boat, to a fixed point like a dock, jetty, or the seabed. It involves ropes, cables, or chains attached to anchors or mooring buoys to prevent movement caused by waves, winds, or currents. Proper mooring ensures safety, stability, and position for the vessel while docked or at anchor. It is a critical aspect of maritime operations, requiring careful design and secure attachment to accommodate varying weather conditions and vessel sizes.
