    Hello experts,
    Problem: ship jetty mooring. need to prevent vessel from moving towards the jetty.
    I am trying to add two shore fenders which will prevent my tanker from translating into the shoreside.
    I havent modeled Jetty structure. How exactly to arrest vessel translating "into" the jetty? I propose fenders fixed to jetty to be modeled. But how? I understand POLY, FEND. But not FLIN. Can someone advise?

    Thank you for your response. 180m. I am only using fenders to prevent +Y excursion. Not interested in fender loads.
    But I found a way to use Workbench to model fenders.
