Ducks

 The mooring duck, used in conjunction with such a device as mooring jacks, is intended not only for reliable fixing to the shore of a boat, dinghy, yacht and other types of small water transport, but is also widely used for towing these vessels, as well as for fastening running rigging. Although its main task is still mooring, and the main function is to prevent rocking and hitting against the berth and neighboring vessels.

The main features of mooring ducks

The construction of mooring webs may involve the use of one or two racks and a crossbar that forms long wedges. If two racks are used, the crossbar forms a closed opening with them.

With the help of mooring ducks, you can fix the free ends of the rope or rope, which are used to moor a boat or other water transport. As with ducks, among ducks there are different and overhead models. Fastening, as a rule, is carried out with the help of bolts.

The material for making a mooring duck can be:

• Stainless Steel;

• aluminum;

• plastic.

   It must be remembered that the conditions of operation of this mooring device are quite aggressive - it is the scorching sun, and constant humidity, and salt water. Accordingly, such quality materials as stainless steel are irreplaceable. It will not be superfluous to buy mooring ducks with an additional coating, which will make these devices even more resistant to corrosion and other negative effects.

How to choose mooring ducks

When choosing a mooring duck, you need to pay attention to several points:

• ship size;

• the size of the duck itself;

• operating conditions;

• the material from which the duck is made;

• installation option of this device.

The operational moments of other mooring elements also depend on the correctness of your choice in the future. Poor quality material or an incorrectly selected model of the mooring duck will quickly lead to the unusability of the ropes and will fray the rope and ropes. The duck should not have visible defects in the form of burrs, cracks, chips and other deformations. Following these simple rules will allow these mooring devices to last for a long time.
