18mm x 600mm Zinc plated mooring pin for driving into grass verges on canals and rivers. Tip - always drive pins in at a 30-45 degree angle with the head pointing away from the vessel, and ensure mooring lines are wrapped around the body of the pin as well as through the ring to reduce chances or pins pulling out in wet or windy weather. For added security, drive a second pin through the eye of the first to form an X. These mooring stakes are extremely robust and weather resistant. The mooring pins are manufactured with a shielded top to help protect your hands when hitting the top with a lump hammer and spiked end to help make it easier to put into the ground. The boat mooring stake comes complete with a strong eye welded towards the top of the pin which provides a good anchoring hole tying mooring ropes to. Mooring stakes are a useful tool to have onboard in case no anchoring point on the bank of the river or canal can be found. The nature of the mooring pins shape means it is very easy to stow away safely when not in use without taking up too much space.
