Swing moorings

  • Kawau Island
  • Leigh
  • Omaha
  • Ti Point
  • Sandspit
  • Weiti River
  • Matiatia
  • Rakino Island.

A swing mooring system is used instead of a conventional fixed mooring, which makes it easier to adjust a boat’s position either side to side or fore and aft. To do this the boat is fitted with a single bowline-on-a-bight-to-each-side, and either one or two spring lines. Sailboats fitted with a bow spirit will have one spring line attached to it, as will most powerboats. The spring lines are attached to a mooring ring at one end, and to a bitt on the boat at the other. The bitt can be placed either near or at the centre of the fore-and-aft deck line and is where the boat’s control lines are led to.

Pile moorings

  • Panmure
  • Sandspit.

Pile mooring is gaining popularity these days. It is cheap and sturdy. Pile moored vessels are generally moored to the land at both ends. There is a main anchor and a secondary stay. Pile mooring is used where there are no bollards, quays etc available and the vessels can be moored alongside the river banks. A major advantage is that the vessels can be moved without the necessity of moving the base, the pile. Pile mooring is a method for securing a vessel to the land or riverbank. There are four main types of pile used to moorings
