How do I know the max size of boat my moorage can handle?

Check installer documents for ratings, contact the installer, or ask a qualified inspector to assess capacity. When unsure, choose a conservative limit to protect guests, your equipment, and nearby property.

It's crucial to accurately specify the maximum boat size your moorage can safely accommodate on OnBuoy. Here are some methods to help you determine this:

  1. Consult Moorage Documentation: If you have the original receipt from when your moorage was installed, it should indicate the recommended weight or size limitations for your particular setup.
  2. Contact the Moorage Installer: If you have contact information for the company or individual who installed your moorage, they might be able to provide specific details regarding its weight capacity.
  3. Seek Professional Advice: A qualified mooring inspector or marine professional can assess your specific moorage and provide an expert opinion on the maximum safe weight or size limit for the vessels it can handle.

Here's what OnBuoy recommends - always prioritize the safety of your guests and your property. When in doubt, opt for a lower weight/size limit to ensure a sufficient buffer zone.
