Hello Everyone,
The Florida boat made it to Maine a month ago. I have a question for you about mooring a Parker with a bow pulpit. What have you tried and what has been successful? I am hesitant to run a mooring line through the bow pulpit because of the stress it would put on the bow pulpit during a nor'easter. Has anybody tried a double eye around both sides of the bow pulpit? Anybody added a mooring bit or different cleats? It seems like the obvious place to put a mooring bitt is where the windlass would be. I'd like to think that someday I will add a windlass. The local accepted method is mooring with a one inch hawser.
Any help would be appreciated if you have experience with this situation.
Thanks,
Charlie
