Mooring Buoy, with Shackle Nest, Hard Shell, 18"

Sur-Moor Shackle Mooring Buoys built with a "Rope Nest" cup at the top. The rope nest keeps the anchor shackle below the buoy preventing contact with your boat hull. The nest is a convenient place for your pennant line. The center tube on the shackle buoy allows the mooring chain to pass through the buoy.

The UV protected polyethylene hard shell is sandblasted for easy painting while the reflective blue stripe aids visibility. The foam core filling provides positive water displacement & promotes longevity.

• Ground tackle chain passes through 2-1/2" center tube
• Requires a shackle large enough to prevent chain from slipping through center tube (check before deploying)
• Cup shape in top holds pennant line & protects boat & PWC hulls
• Shackle and hardware not included
• 3 year flotation warranty

Buoyancy ratings listed on the product page indicate the maximum flotation the buoy provides while fully submerged. Use 50% of this value as the weight the buoy can support at the level of the blue stripe. As a general rule, you should select a buoy offering slightly over twice the amount of flotation required for the weight of the anchor chain you will be using. (Example: 50 lbs of anchor chain will require a little more than 100 lbs of buoyancy)
