Reasons for using Morring Tails:
When using mooring ropes, there is a general desirability for the additional elasticity provided by mooring tails. The additional elasticity reduces the loads induced in wire mooring lines under dynamic loadings by permitting the ship to respond more favorably to various combinations of wind, wave and current as well as ships passing at slow speeds in close proximity.
The additional elongation of the mooring line system permitted by the tail reduced the risk associated with poor line tending and the frequency and precision of the line tending, particularly in berths where large tidal variations in high loading - unloading rates.
Mooring Tails are also variable at berths having short breast or spring leads as they provide the same effect as a longer all wire line. And lastly they facilitate the handling of wire lines by seamen.
