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

| If it does get torn off.... you still have 20 feet of floating line
| [yellow/
| 1/2"] to snag. That won't rip off. It would be a rare occasion to remove
| the
| 2x4.... but I've seen it happen with 7 feet of ice and -45 temp all
| winter.

| | Polyprop floating line .... about 20 feet. A piece of 2x4 about a
foot
| | long
| | with a hole drilled through the center.
| | Run the rope through the 2x4 and tie it off... put the other end on
| the
| | chain for your mooring. Toss the works over and pick it up at low
tide
| | next
| | year with a boat hook.
| |
| | Works every time....

| | | Getting ready to drop my mooring for the winter.......
| | |
| | | I'm just going to run a line from the chain to the shore.....
| | |
| | | Or I might get a smaller ball so it is below the ice...
| | |
| | | Any radical/new ways of doing this?
