Mooring & Anchoring

Mooring refers to the process of securing a vessel to a fixed point such as a dock, quay, buoy, or pier using ropes, cables, or chains. It is mainly used to keep the vessel stable and in position while it is docked or stationary in port.

Anchoring is the process of securing a vessel to the seabed using an anchor. The anchor is dropped to the bottom and connected to the vessel by a chain or rope, holding the vessel in place when it is not tied to a dock.
