ABSTRACT:
A device for mooring a vessel to a mooring tower, buoy, seabed, or the like, has a device for absorbing excessive mooring forces. The vessel will normally travel a given distance when attached to the mooring tower or the like, due to forces such as waves, wind, or tide. However, when extreme conditions are encountered such that the vessel attempts to travel beyond this given distance, the device for absorbing can accommodate these excessive forces. The device for absorbing will permit the vessel to travel a distance which is greater than or equal to the given distance under these extreme conditions.
