ennisp said: Along the same "line", I recall a post somewhere that suggested using a carabiner to secure the 2 bow lines to the mooring pennant. Might make the process quicker, easier and less stressful. Any thoughts on this? What size carabiner have you used? How much load could the carabiner be subject to?
Thanks,
Peter We use this one. We use it to secure one of the two lines to the pennant. The other line we loop through the pennant then back to the same cleat. http://www.defender.com/product.jsp?path=-1|2259973|2260015&id=125770
