Mooring operations are challenging and sometimes lead to fatal accidents onboard; Therefore, Gard alerts that the first line ashore has the highest potential to snap given the level of load it can experience to steady a moving vessel.
Specifically, Gard highlights that the first lines during mooring operations have to get and hold the vessel in position until the remaining mooring lines are sent ashore and vessel is safely moored.
