so i asked my neighborer for his mooring today and he said yes. i'm not sure of the weight it is a mushroom anchor about 50-85lbs i think that cause i can lift it but barely so it could be even 100lb idk. and it has 5-8' inch and half chain and than 5' rope to the surface the mooring is on the beach so i can pick were i want it i was planning on putting it in at low tide and about 20' from shore so at low tide it will be about 2-5 ' away. the sailboat is 16' so i need it at least that from shore has swings keel so i don't need much clearance was thinking about 2-3' at low tide. so was i really need to know is how and what to moor the boat with what kind a line from boat to bouy and how to instal cleats on the boat to tie to there isn't any cleat on the boat as of now.
