Mooring Question

(1/6) > >>

bassin212:
Hi Everyone, seeking your advice. So I will be mooring my boat for the first time. I've seen it out on the water a million times, but have never physically used one or put one together. I have a 15.5ft Aluminum Sea Nymph. Any tips or words of wisdom? I have looked into the different types of anchor systems

but wanted peoples feedback. It will be in a protected area, not sure how deep the mooring will be yet, but hoping I can do it fairly shallow as I will probably have to remove my trolling motor battery in and out of the boat to charge it. Seems as though most of the lake is fairly sandy, but need to review the location.

thanks!

I second this!
Also, you can buy solar powered battery chargers for your trolling motor.

What's a mooring permit? I'm not a boat owner and do not know the regs...... I do have a buddy that moors his boat on two different lakes and it's free. Some lakes you have to pay and be put on a waiting list he said.

Use it on the batteries though.
