🔍 Key Concepts

• Leeward vs. windward mooring lines and how wind affects tension • Goal of a survival condition in mooring: reduce environmental loads on the unit and lines • How to best balance loads between different sides of a moored unit in heavy weather

💭 Think About

• If you slack off the leeward lines, what happens to the load on the windward lines? Should it increase, decrease, or stay the same? • In a survival situation, is your priority to keep the unit at transit draft, to equalize line loads, or to free certain anchors? Why? • Think about which action best prevents overloading any single line or anchor when wind and waves increase.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify how windward lines are expected to behave compared with leeward lines in heavy weather or survival mode • Check which option focuses on redistributing tension rather than changing draft or anchor configuration • Confirm that the selected option contributes to a more stable and evenly shared mooring load across the system.
