🔍 Key Concepts

• Difference between a bow line, breast line, and spring line when mooring to a pier • How the direction of the line (along the pier vs nearly at right angles) shows its function • Which lines are used mainly to keep the vessel alongside vs preventing fore‑and‑aft movement

💭 Think About

• Look closely at line F: does it run mostly parallel to the pier or almost straight in toward it? What does that tell you about its job? • Is line F leading from near the bow straight toward the pier, or is it leading forward or aft along the pier from that point? Match that behavior to the type of line. • Which of the answer choices would best describe a line whose main purpose is to hold the bow in toward the dock rather than stop it from moving ahead or astern?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify whether line F is fore‑and‑aft (along the pier) or athwartship (toward the pier) in the illustration. • Confirm that a spring line always leads forward or aft along the pier from its attachment point on the vessel. • Confirm that a breast/bow line is generally more perpendicular to the pier and mainly controls distance off the dock.
