If your boat is moored and a big wave boat runs by that can snatch out a cleat. A trick i use is to put a 5 or 10 pound weight in the middle of the line. That turns the line into sort of a spring. As the line flattens out the tension becomes greater and the boat doesn't snatch as it hits the end.
If necessaru your mooring line can be run under the dock to the other side to make it ling enough for the weight.
