What is your favourite for mooring the boat? I did a search and was surprised to see nothing.

What are you tying to? Cleats or something else?

Here's a cleat knot.

One thing I've noticed about most people that trailer their boats:

1. They don't know how to tie up to the dock properly.
2. They don't know how to anchor properly.

I trailer my boat everywhere and agree. Haven't used the anchor once (in this boat) and haven't docked it yet.

Only had the boat 4 weeks though but have a cottage rented for bass opener. Thanks for the link.

OK

How do we know if we are not doing it right if someone doesn't show us how to do it right?
