Contemplated mooring systems have one or more primary tethers that extend laterally and to which respective pluralities of independent secondary tethers are coupled that in turn are coupled to floating marine devices, and especially wave energy converters. The primary tethers are coupled to preferably static seabed anchors and will so provide a simple and dynamic mooring system that provides multiple operational advantages while allowing for simple deployment and maintenance.
