In answer to some of the other posters, I personally don't like bowlines on mooring lines as they can't be undone under pressure, but I'm not going to fail every person who moors that way. They just ought to understand that there inherent dangers in the method and make sure that the inboard end is easy to adjust.

When in a raft the line to shore takes up less room on a crowded cleat if a bowline loop is used or do you think a double round turn and two half hitches preferable even on a crowded cleat.
