Buoy
Technology, LLC. (BuoyTec)
has
been providing Elastic
Moorings and Complete Buoy Systems for demanding marine
and freshwater environments since 1981. In locations where
conventional moorings are often damaged or lost, BuoyTec's
compliant systems have time and time again demonstrated
their resilience.

Advantages
of BuoyTec Elastic Moorings:
|
|
|
|
|
1)
Survivability
BuoyTec
Elastic Moorings eliminate snap loadings and severe
mechanical shock, the most common causes of at-sea failure
of moorings, buoys and delicate instrumentation.
|
|
| |
|
Allows for lighter
mooring gear, including anchors
Buoys,
moorings and delicate instruments "ride out"
rough seas.
BuoyTec Elastic Moorings have over 250 percent elongation
capacity to withstand very large tides and ocean storm
waves.
|
|
|
|
|
2)
Stability
BuoyTec
Elastic Moorings maintain substantial mooring tension
throughout the range of tide and waves.
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
3)
Station Keeping
BuoyTec
Elastic Moorings limit lateral movement to 10 percent
of depth, or less, even in the presence of moderate
currents.
|
|
| |
|
- Ideal
for "guard" buoy and hazard marking applications.
- Minimum
Mooring Tilt for ADCP and other acoustic applications.
- Accurate
temporary markers.
- Buoys
can be placed very near other underwater structures
without running risk of entanglement.
