No, but that's an idea my buddies have suggested, Bill. My issue with that is wrestling with the chocks when I'm trying to cleat the line back on in the rolling waters we get around here. Thanks for your response…I just need to think a bit more about this. —Steve On Sep 1, 2010, at 11:16 AM, Bill Wickett wrote:
Steve,
Do you have chocks to lead the mooring line over the gunwale?

Hello! A bit of controversy here regarding whether to cleat the buoy pennant to my Monty 15 or to go with a marine carabiner to the trailer eye. I chose option #1 this summer, and the then-brand new stout dock line sold to me by West Marine has abraded so much that I've had to replace it. OK to go with shackling at the eye, as opposed to cleating?
Thanks in advance for sending on your experience and mooring wisdom!
