Oh no, Jerry. Just the concept at large of taking below the anchors. 
In Response To: I'm not sure that ? is directed at me ()
I've never tied to moorings, we don't see many out here and while I've seen 100+ mph winds on my boat..at the dock, mercifully..a time or two, we don't generally have hurricanes or Noreasters. Of course, the sailing/boating areas are substantially less out here.
