Example Mooring for an 18 metre fishing vessel

The essence of intelligent design is that solutions are not applied arbitrarily.

Every application has its own specific conditions. In this example, a mooring is to be installed at Lancelin Anchorage.


Australian Chart 105
Design Data
Site Lancelin Anchorage
Bottom Sand
Wind Data As 1170.2 1989
Water Depth 2.3m
Tide Range 1.0m
Surge 1.0m
Swing Radius 25m
The mooring is designed to accommodate the above data, with considerations of economics, weight and transportability.

Swing Radius Setup

A detailed break down of the components required to install the mooring is given:
