🔍 Key Concepts

• Mediterranean moor (Med moor) – how the ship lies relative to the pier and anchor(s) • Purpose of lines when the ship’s stern is toward the pier and the bow is held by anchor(s) • Difference between bow lines, stern lines, quarter lines, midship lines, and how they are normally led

💭 Think About

• Visualize the Mediterranean moor: Where is the bow? Where is the stern? Which end is against/near the pier, and which is held by the anchor(s)? • Ask yourself which lines must lead to the pier from the correct end of the ship to control movement sideways and fore‑and‑aft when the bow is held by anchor(s). • For each option, picture whether those lines, led in that way, would realistically keep the stern in position against the pier without twisting the ship.

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm that in a Mediterranean moor the bow is held by the anchor(s) and the stern is toward the pier. • Check which lines in each choice are actually connected to the end of the ship that is at the pier – bow lines vs stern/quarter/midship lines. • Verify that the chosen combination of lines would prevent both surging (fore‑and‑aft movement) and sheering (sideways/yawing movement) while the bow is restrained by the anchor(s).
