This works for about 2 seasons until the chain cuts through the blocks like a saw with all the movement. One thing that is very important. INSPECT your mooring completely on a regular schedule.
Or you may end up like me having my neighbors calling saying your boat drifted away. I was lucky, when the boat got close to shore the mast hung up in a tree branch and held the boat there for a few days away from the rocks.
