I am planning on mooring my Oday 240 in the harbor. The Oday 240 has the 2 original bow cleats and no chocks. Do you think I should add a large mooring cleat and chocks? Thank-you in advance, Chris
...the same setup. I moor mine as well with no ill-effects.; I use two pennants and have had no problems with chafing. It seems as though the cleats are far enough out, and the boat low enough, that chafing isn't a problem. That is, the angle that the pennants ride works out OK. In fact, it rode out Issabelle in the Chesapeake last year on the mooring.
...which were added by the prev owner. He kept his on a mooring first, then moved to a slip. He said that mooring was ok with the original setup, but he wanted more convience/security for anchoring in Apostle Islands and North Channel. I do have some cracks in the mounting track for the rub rail caused where pennant pulled before he added chocks.
