Hello to all of you, sailors and potential sailors!!
In this video, you will be guided through the essential steps and techniques for maneuvering a sailing boat with single propeler in a marina for docking.
From understanding the dynamics of wind and currents to mastering throttle control and steering, this tutorial will provide valuable insights to help sailors confidently navigate tight spaces and dock their boats with precision.
Whether you're a beginner looking to improve your docking skills or an experienced sailor seeking to refine your techniques, this video is packed with practical tips and expert advice to enhance your marina maneuvering abilities. Get ready to sail smoothly into any dock with confidence and ease!
PS. Please understand my talking to the student (Federico) was a bit too much, but in purpose in order to explain a bit better the maneuvers to the viewers.

Excellent video. I was looking for it about someone that explain using the errors. I mean, learning with the errors and not only showing the good and easy part of maneuvers. Congrats and hope, one day, have a chance to visit those marines.
your boat has a right-handed propeller, so the "on spot" 360° manouver has to be done clockwise ! nice lesson ! Do the opposit if you drive a left-handed propeller.
The side of the turning mostly depends of the wind direction, and we always make sure to either counter the prop walk, either use it to our advantage. Thank you for your comment and the support to the Chanel captain
Excellent instructions. Good job by the student as well.
He is one of the best I ever had and only 18yo
So... Where does the bow line come from? Is it already there?
Love your instructional videos. One question - after the initial turn when hitting the reverse for the first time, why engage port rudder? is it because the boat still has the forward momentum and you want it to continue turning to port?
The moment you decide to go reverse you keep the rudder to the maximum so it helps the deceleration of the boat and when the boat is still you put it into center to help the acceleration on reverse.
That's an advantace maneuver technique and the kid was very experienced so he could understand. You need to guess the future position of the boat very accurately and that's something you can achieve only with a lot of practice
@@epicnavigator would you achieve the same result if the rudder was starboard and you alternate between forward, neutral and reverse? thank you.
Why don’t you go further forward and back into the spot?
Presumably this is a single rudder yacht
Σε παρακαλω μπορεις να βαλεις υποτιτλους;
Καλησπέρα!! Εάν πατήσετε στους υπότιτλους βγαίνουν αυτόματα στα αγγλικά και μετά από τις ρυθμίσεις διαλέγετε αυτόματη μετάφραση σε Ελληνικά. Ελπίζω να βοήθησα...
@@epicnavigator Ευχαριστω!
What do you do if you loose the prop in the middle of the maneuver ?
That's another video coming soon
You calling for Help as you deploying the anchor

Great video
