- Reducing anarchic mooring of cruise ships and yachts at anchor in protected areas,
- Offshore & remote mooring,
- Temporary mooring in a port, dock or harbour,
- Additional mooring for large vessels on berthing/mooring dolphin,
- Long term mooring for occasionally used vessels.
It is sized to the characteristics of the civil and/or national navy boats it accommodates, the mooring line is calibrated according to environmental conditions (sea currents and exposure to the wind), it connects the mooring box to the dead body fixed to the bottom of the sea.
