ABSTRACT:
A buoy mooring device and system adapted to maintain a buoy in an upright untilted position. A rigid bail having a center of curvature essentially coincident with the buoy center of buoyancy is connected to the bottom of the buoy. A mooring line having an anchor on one end is attached on the other end to the bail by a movable connecting means. As wind and/or water currents tend to tilt the buoy, the mooring system maintains the buoy in an upright position. Alternative embodiments include mooring systems comprising foldable bails and systems comprising multiple bails.
