Weebles will eventually live in Florida where pilings are almost always the style (except for fuel docks/pump-outs). GIven the guidance from Patience/Capt Bob, I may wait and make a decision later. I don't relish thought of stowing fender boards and such. Maybe it's me, but I've always thought of docking as a contact sport where laying-up against a piling is normal. Guess that will have to change. Buy a bigger anchor will remeidate the risk I suppose.
