    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mooring

    Some ships use wire rope for one or more of their mooring lines. Wire rope is hard to handle and maintain. There is also risk associated with using wire rope on a ship's stern in the vicinity of its propeller. Mooring lines and hawsers may also be made by combining wire rope and synthetic line.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitts

    Bitts are paired vertical wooden or metal posts mounted either aboard a ship or on a wharf, pier, or quay. The posts are used to secure mooring lines, ropes, hawsers, or cables. [1] Bitts aboard wooden sailing ships (sometime called cable-bitts) were large vertical timbers mortised into the keel and used as the anchor cable attachment point. [2]

    This includes mooring ropes using to keep the vessel secure in port. [15] Seamanship on some vessel types may involves being able to maintain and use marine cranes and lifting equipment if fitted on a ship. Larger ship types usually have a crane for cargo operations and for bringing on stores, provisions and supplies for the crew. [20]

  7. Chafing (nautical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chafing_(nautical)

    Traditionally ropes were wrapped in canvas and lubricated with tallow; however, plastic sleeves or pipes (sometimes as simple as a piece of old garden hose) are more common in recent times. [3] Chafing of a sail rubbing against a cable can be prevented on large ships by tying a baggywrinkle around the cable.
