[QUOTE="KDM, post: 71457, member: 314"] Assuming the dock has cleats, I use a double overhand knot and put the loop under the cleat and then one side of the loop over each end of the cleat and yank tight. For poles I just feed the line through the loop made from the double overhand knot and then over the top of the pole. I put about 4-6 bumper buoys between the dock and boat as well. Never had one slip off a cleat or pole no matter how rough it got. If I need to tie up for longer than overnight, I put the boat back on the trailer and tarp it. [/QUOTE]
