Mooring is 12-15 feet deep at high tide.....
Hardly no traffic......none in winter time....

How deep is the mooring? Is there lots of traffic over the mooring area?

foot

on

tide
| | next

| |
| | Works every time....

| | |
| | | Or I might get a smaller ball so it is below the ice...
| | |
| | | Any radical/new ways of doing this?
