SlideMoor solves most of the docking problems that most boaters will encounter. This simple system (almost too simple) ties your boat TIGHT to a bumper/Slide that rides on an 8' track you bolt to your piling.

The vertical movement caused by waves and tides make the self lubricating carriage move up and down with your boat as necessary but any horizontal motion or surge is not allowed since the boat is tied tight to the Slide. Since all horizontal motion is eliminated, no "wind-up" is allowed to start and therefore no damaging "punch" will harm your boat or dock.

This simplifies docking lines by eliminating ALL lines except the short lines on the SlideMoor which are all on one side of your boat. Simple. This eliminates bumpers, whips, outer tide poles. No movement when loading or unloading. Larger boats can fit in smaller slips since this motion is all but eliminated.
