Anchoring
PRIVATE MOORING BUOYS
Soliton manufactures and installs "Private Mooring Buoy Kits" using a minimum 2,000lb concrete anchor block, 1/2" 80 marine grade long-link chain, two polystyrene foam-filled tire buoys that are capped and bolted for maximum buoyancy, satisfying all Transport Canada Regulations. Our Private Mooring Buoy Kits come with a swivel, shackles, nylon lead-line and a snap-hook. If you have a bigger vessel, we will scale this kit up to your requirements.
All parts are also sold separately!
You can also upgrade to our storm-rated dynamic lines. With stretch upwards of 40%, we give you piece of mind for your investment. We use single and triple points of anchoring. Using high quality mooring rods, mid water floats and dynamic pendants we can minimize your impact on the seafloor and also prolonging the life of your mooring system. This is all designed to absorb the wind and wave actions while providing a high tensile backup. At the extended length, the load will be transferred to its 1-5/16 inch diameter hollow braid cover with a 25000lb average tensile strength. It has proven itself to be of extremely durable construction with excellent UV and abrasion resistance.

-Custom lengths available
-Abrasion resistant high tensile cover
-Non corroding design yields longer life
-Energy absorbing polyester jacketed core

Transport Canada- An Owners Guide to Private Buoys
Soliton creates solutions for your anchoring needs. We do design and installation for anchoring patterns along with multiple point moorings. Concrete blocks are simple, easy and readily available. They work well for all bottom types: even very rocky areas where traditional methods encounter difficulties.
Helical Anchors
Helical piers are highly successful under water. Based on seabed composition a helical pier can provide five times the holding power of traditional anchoring methods.
Helical piers are highly successful under water. Based on seabed composition a helical pier can provide five times the holding power of traditional anchoring methods.
Helical piers can be used in fresh and salt-water environments. Our mooring buoy package can be further engineered to use our proven installation system. We do a simple test to prove site viability and depth requirements. The added bonus of helical piers and our dynamic anchoring systems will give you a shortened scope of 5:1.
Here is an owners guide curated by Transport Canada to help you with all the questions you may have.
