ABSTRACT:
A floating dock mooring article that is movably connected around a watercraft dock pipe comprises a float operatively connected to a mooring member having a flange generally located at the upper end thereof. A watercraft is moored to the dock, as by a rope, via the mooring article. The mooring member has at least one radially outward set projection having an external diameter and the float has at least one radially inward projection having an internal diameter. The mooring member projection external diameter is greater than the float inward projection internal diameter. The inward projection is capable of engaging the mooring member projection so that the float is set at a predetermined height of said mooring member and/or the float is capable of causing the mooring member to rise.
