As PG mentioned, Ayala Cove is bow and stern mooring. We also run the lines to and from the moorings to allow easier egress. No close-ups of the mooring balls in these pics, but here are a couple of shots that give you the idea.
The proximity to Raccoon Straight causes some significant current through the cove. You can see the effects of the tides in the shots. If you don't arrive at slack tide, you need to have a system in place to get hooked up quickly.
I like PG's suggestion to launch the dingy to assist. When we travel in numbers, the first one moored launches to assist the rest of the crowd. There is also ample opportunity to provide dingy assistance to other arrivals, if they so desire. It's a great way to meet new friends and expand the party!
