  • Patent number: 4284026
    Abstract: An economical, space saving, durable, rot and corrosion resistant mooring device for mooring a boat while allowing full articulation. An adjustable base unit allows vertical adjustment of the basic mooring unit to account for varying freeboard of the dock and for required flotation assistance. Stationary landing arms and stationary landing arm uprights support a resilient stretch member allowing the bow of the boat to be craddled while the stern lines and dock cleats allow the tensioning of the boat in the mooring device thus allowing full articulation while severely limiting any pivotal action of the boat in response to wind and wave action.
