LIROS 14mm Anchorplait Nylon Mooring Strops, prepared in house by the Jimmy Green Rigging Team.

Consult the information in our Mooring Strop Size Guide to establish the most suitable specification for your motor or sailing yacht, considering the application: single or double point permanent mooring

The Buoy End
Consider how you are going to attach the warp to the buoy.
The most common solution is a strong, rated shackle connection between the ring on the buoy and a hard thimble spliced into the end of the strop

• Eye Splice - Galvanised Thimble
• Eye Splice - Stainless Steel Thimble

Anchorplait is the rope that won't cockle, so always select Anchorplait or Octoplait for a swinging mooring

Anti-Chafe Measures
Adding a metre or more of PVC Hose or tubular webbing will help to protect the strop from wear and tear as it passes over the bow roller and extend the working life
The Jimmy Green Rigging Team will sleeve it over the line before splicing the other end

Shock Absorption
You can add a mooring compensator to ameliorate any snatch loads, an optional extra for exposed moorings

Attaching to your strongpoint on deck
Consider how you are going to attach the warp to a strongpoint on the foredeck
The most common solution is a Loop Splice

• Loop Splice 250mm (inside measurement when pulled out straight)
• Loop Splice 250mm with anti-chafe webbing - this is a short piece of tube webbing sleeved around the loop - helps to protect the line from wear and tear and extends the working life
