The initial cost of a mooring system varies depending on factors like water depth, layout and the surrounding forces. When installing in deep water for example, piles and chain are very costly while Seaflex becomes competitive due to its integrated rope that can handle even the most extreme forces.

SEAFLEX® also requires substantially less maintenance than other mooring systems due to the fact that the system's components are exceptionally durable. Consider the difference compared with chains for example, where iron links must be replaced due to rust, wear and fatigue. Also the low installation cost with fast and easy inspections contribute to Seaflex being the most cost effective mooring method considering the life time of a marina.
