    I live in Maine and own three moorings. My boat sits on a mooring for
    almost six months a year and I've experienced getting on it and off it in
    many different conditions. It is honestly a very simple thing to do.

    I also just returned from down south and spent the last three nights on
    moorings in different locations: Cuttyhunk, MA, Scituate, MA, and Casco
    Bay, ME. On two of the three moorings, there was a pennant (bridle in both
    cases) already attached. It is a pretty trivial task to pull up to a
    mooring with a pennant and pull it up to attach to your boat.

    There have been many great suggestions about grabbing a mooring without any
    lines already attached. In general, my experience in the northeast is that
    this won't be the configuration that you'll come across.
