This report contains the results of the inspection of three fleet moorings located within the Naval Weapons Station, Charleston, SC. Of the three moorings inspected, the Mediterranean Mooring, ARDM-2, and the Auxiliary Mooring's chain were found to be in satisfactory condition, while the Auxiliary Mooring's Buoy was found to be in poor condition. Only 8 of the 13 legs of the ARDM-2 were inspected. The Auxiliary Mooring's Buoy should be removed from the water before it sinks. Due to measurements slightly greater than 80% of original wire diameter, it is recommended that legs C, J, and K be changed out during the next scheduled maintenance period. Keywords: Fleet moorings.
