ABSTRACT:
A floating vessel is moored to a floating facility, a fixed dock or another floating vessel by a pair of rigid compressive links pivotally connected to each other and to the two facilities that are to be moored to each other. A partly submerged spar buoy is pivotally connected to the two rigid links at their pivotal connection to each other and, by virtue of its weight and buoyancy, provides a restraining force acting through the rigid links that tends to maintain the distance between the two interconnected facilities.
