ABSTRACT:
A mooring device for securing of watercraft to a structure having spaced apart planking is provided. The mooring device comprises a shaft, an elongated head mounted transverse to the shaft on one end, a T-shaped handle removably mounted on the other end, a clevis, an enlarged plate disposed on the shaft and a biasing spring encircling the shaft adapted to bias the plate toward the bar. The mooring device has a locking bar associated therewith which is substantially a planar elongated bar having a wedge shaped offset portion on one end, a T-shaped handle support on the other end and a shaft support intermediate the ends. The offset portion is adapted to be disposed between the planking with a knee of the bar bearing against the top surface of the plate. The locking bar is rotated in the plane of the bar until the offset portion bears against the underside of the plate, the shaft support on the back of the body bears against the shaft and the handle support underlies the T-shaped handle. A padlock is then inserted through the shackle and the lock hole in the bar securing the locking bar to the mooring device thereby securing the mooring device to the structure.
