Pohatu Nuva: As there's been no cache to find for months, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Tai yra NACRO Sleptuve, joje nera rasymo priemoniu!!!!

Molas (lot. moles - užtvanka) - statinys uosto akvatorijai apsaugoti nuo bangavimo,ledonešio, užnešimo sanašomis.Priklausomai nuo bangavimo intensyvumo, molas gali buti statomas ilgas ar trumpas: jis gali buti ir 10 m plocio bei keliu šimtu metru ilgio. Molai statomi iš dideliu akmenu, dideliu (50—1000 t) betono ar tušciaviduriu gelžbetoniniu bloku (tuštumos pripilamos balasto).Molas vienu galu (šaknimi) remiasi i kranta, antruoju (galva) išsikiša iki gylio, atitinkancio uosta lankanciu laivu grimzle. Dažnai jungiamas su bangolaužiu. Kai uostas yra užtakyje, iš dalies apsaugotame nuo bangavimo, užtenka vieno molo. Kitais atvejais (pvz., užtakio anga plati, vyraujantys vejai pucia lygiagreciai krantui, pakrante sekli, ir i uosta iplaukiama kanalu) paprastai statomi du molai.
Klaipedos uostas turi du lygiagrecius molus, abu virš 1 km ilgio. Jie pastatyti ant poliu. Viršvandenine dalis išmuryta iš akmenu. Pagilinus uosta, molai sustiprinti akmenimis ir dideliais betono blokais.

Bukite ypatingai atsargus ir labai saugokite visus savo daiktus! Viska galite akimirksniu prarasti negriztamai!

This is NACRO Cache, you must have your own pencil!!!

Mole is a building of port in the aquatic environment protected from swell, debacle and warp. Depending on swell intensity mole can be built in long or short: it may be 10 m wide and several hundred meters in length. Mole is built from large stones, large (50-1000 tons) concrete or reinforced concrete hollow blocks (voids filled with ballast). Mole one end (root) is based on the land; the second (head) protrudes to a depth corresponding to the port of attending draft. Moles often are connected to the piers. When the port is in a creek, partially protected from the swell, it’s enough to have just one mole. In other cases (eg, creek mouth wide, prevailing winds blowing parallel to shore, shallow coast and the port of entry channel) generally are constructed two moles. Klaipeda port has two parallel moles, both over 1 km in length. They are built on stilts. Overwater part is made of the stones. When the port was deepened, moles were reinforced by large stones and the concrete blocks.
Be especially cautious of yourself and all your things! There is a big risk to lose everything irreversibly!
