mooring rope recommendation

[BruceK]

As I said above the eye should fit comfortably but snugly over the cleat. i.e. The eye diameter being less than the cleat length if it is not under tension.

As above. never be tempted to thred an eye between the cleat pillars like so when on a mooring:

This is because should you need to get the boat off in bad conditions the tension on the strop will severely restrict your ability to do so. The only time using this method is viable is around a pontoon cleat when the boat cleat is O-X-O and you can cast off discarding lines.

Yes im using method 5 6 and 7. I think diameter of the eye in my case is quite larger than the lenght of the cleat thats why i was worried it could back off. as you said when under tension it is not easy to remove from cleat. It will be removed but with quite a bit of fatigue and hassle. So diameter of eye should measure lenght of cleat on the inside of rope and will be removed easily.

Thanks a lot for your help. Appreciate. Nowadays not everyone is willing to help and explain not even the locals.
