How to use "Mooring" in context?
Mooring is a critical component of offshore sailing. It is the connection between boat and the sea or other bodies of water. Mooring lines are made of various materials and are designed to withstand the pulling and shearing forces of the sea. Alignment of the mooring lines with the poles or anchors is critical to safe sailing. Moorings are also used for anchoring ships in tight harbors.
