Mooring inspection & service
A close look.
A complete service.
I inspect the mooring, measure its condition, service worn components as needed, reinstall the tackle, and document the finished job.
From scheduling to finished job
A straightforward process.
I get to the tackle and take care of what I find.
I hoist the entire mooring up to the surface so the working components can be inspected and measured directly. If worn components need replacement, I’m stocked for normal mooring service so they can be taken care of during the same visit.
The job gets finished properly.
The tackle is reinstalled and the block is placed where it belongs. Your inspection report includes GPS coordinates of the block before and after the inspection, along with documentation of the condition found and the work performed.

From the buoy down
Following every connection.
A mooring is a system. The condition of each connection matters to the integrity of the whole.
Chain & wear points
Links and critical contact points are checked for wear, corrosion, deformation, and changes in condition.
Shackles, pins & swivels
The hardware joining the system together is inspected closely, including pins and the points where components bear against one another.
Buoy, pendants & surface gear
Buoy connections, nylon pendants, floats, markings, and accessible surface gear are checked for deterioration and proper connection.
Underwater tackle
Submerged connections and tackle are inspected down to the concrete block, with attention to the condition of the system as a whole.
Block Placement Guarantee
If the concrete block is moved during inspection or service, I return it to its proper mooring location before I consider the job complete.
