Abstract:

A watercraft mooring device is disclosed herein which comprises a tubular member having a rope extending through an interior bore so as to form a loop at each end of the tubular member, and which further extends exterior to the tubular member from a hole in the sidewall of the tubular member to one end of the rope. The other end of the rope is secured in the interior bore. In mooring a watercraft to another object, such as a dock, one loop is connected to a watercraft mooring member (i. e. cleat) and the other loop is connected to a dock mooring member. That portion of the rope extending from the sidewall hole is then cinched around the tubular member. A method of assembling the mooring device is also disclosed.
