Ashley appears to have overlooked this simple knot. He suggested that the name "Mooring Hitch" may have been an early name for the Rolling Hitch (ABOK # 1791, p 304) and pointed out that when snug it will not slip down the post. He actually used the name Mooring Hitch for (ABOK # 1194, p 217 ). However, later in the book this same knot appeared as the Pile Hitch (ABOK # 1815, p 306) – which name appears to have stuck.
