ABSTRACT:
A mooring system is proposed for use at docks where tide changes are large. The system requires two vertical mooring posts positioned on the dock at a distance apart so that when the ship is docked one will be at a bow section of the ship and the other at a stern section. The ship is fitted with two post-engaging devices, one in the bow area and one in the stern area, each of which will be in alignment with the appropriate mooring post. The post-engaging devices are mechanically movable so as to engage the adjacent post and the engagement will prevent horizontal movement of the ship, but will permit vertical movement in accord with the tides.
