A safe distance between mooring buoys for boats of 15 meters in length would typically be around 15-20 meters. This distance allows for enough space for boats to swing with changing winds and currents without risking collisions with neighboring boats or buoys. It's important to also consider the specific conditions of the mooring area when determining the appropriate distance.

Mooring buoys
There are several types of buoys used in maritime navigation, including navigational buoys, mooring buoys, and special purpose buoys. Navigational buoys mark channels, hazards, and other important points on the water. Mooring buoys are used for boats to tie up to, and special purpose buoys serve specific functions, such as weather monitoring or scientific research.
