🔍 Key Concepts

• Difference between a bow line, breast line, and spring line in standard mooring terminology • Meaning of inshore vs offshore when looking at mooring lines to a pier • How the direction the line leads (parallel vs perpendicular to the pier, toward or away from the bow) affects its name

💭 Think About

• Look at line G: is it leading mainly forward or aft along the pier, or mostly at a right angle between the ship and the pier? • Does line G run to a fitting that is close alongside the ship (near the pier) or out at an angle away from the pier? How does that relate to the words inshore/offshore? • If you compare G with the clearly diagonal offshore line at H, which term (inshore/offshore/breast/spring) best fits G’s geometry?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm whether spring lines always lead generally fore‑and‑aft along the pier (from bow toward stern or stern toward bow). • Confirm whether a breast line is primarily used to hold the vessel in toward the pier (running almost perpendicular to the pier). • Confirm that an offshore line leads away from the pier to a more distant bollard or dolphin, while an inshore line goes to the pier directly alongside.
