Mooring Pennants
Mooring Pennants
Looking for thoughts regarding the proper length (14', 16', 18') for mooring pennants in order to keep mooring ball from slapping up against the hulls. Thanks!

Hi guys,
Here in Chicago's Monroe harbor I use a set of 14' Yale Cordage pennants that I ordered from Hamilton Marine in Maine. They're great. They have anti-chafing sleeves and are really well made. I don't have any problem with bumping up against the ball.
