This summer we have leased a slip at a fixed dock. The slip is 34' X 14.5' with 3 pilings on each side. At times there is an incredible amount of surge and the boat just bounces back and forth putting a lot of strain on the dock lines. We have doubled bow and stern lines and have bow and stern springs. The only midship cleats on a C&C 37 are on the coach house and don't seem appropriate to take this kind of strain. Currently the spring lines are wrapped around the turnbuckles then taken up to the coach house cleats but we are worried about the strain on the turnbuckles. Yes, there is chafing gear everywhere. Is there a better place to secure the spring lines? Could you share some of your cumulative wisdom? Other than getting a new slip, that is. Bev Genader Bob Morgan C&C 37 Stonington Harbor, CT.
