I'm going to have to mount a cleat on my patio so I can sit around and practice this.

[@centurykam]

Ahahahhaha

[@silentbob1236]

I was thinking the same thing

[@rideshortys]

That’s a better idea lol. You can find my dumbass standing on the dock looking stupid practicing all day.

[@rideshortys]

9 years ago he’s still getting comments on this 😂

[@blakedean7827]

Probably 15 years ago there was kid at the beach that works the dock during summer, probably around 13, and he would do this when boats came to fill up with fuel or grab something from the store. Very impressive no matter who’s doing it.

[@KT-en8pq]

I grew up on the docks and lived aboard. Needless to say I've handled a line plenty. I've never seen anyone do that. Very cool, and for all you "that isn't proper" technique, I agree. However, when speed counts, and it does when docking short hand in wind, I'd rather have her. It can always be made correct after the boat is secured.

[@gatoslokosforever]

it's a him you bigot, not her

[@MCoTEDDY]

@@gatoslokosforever what? are you stupid? her name is litteraly in the title and said in the video as well as in the description. Maybe use your brain next time.

[@A0SAirsoft]

some guy at my marina taught me how to do this when I was like 8.... it's not as hard as it looks, and it's DEFINITELY worth the time to learn!

[@furyiiiplate]

Every single person has something they excel at.. most of us never find it. I am sure she has other awesome talents, but that one is good enough for Best Ever!

[@samiamm5764]

I used to practice that exact technique frantically during my short wait at the ramp while my dad walked over to the truck and trailer after every fishing trip when I was a kid.

[@diegroblers]

Linda is awesome! Thanks for sharing.

[@zyzbro]

That is one handsome woman.

[@zbeekerm]

lol

He's a woman

[@heinrichvonkekelnazi393]

zyzbro That's what happens when you spend every waking moment of your life in the beating sun. Your skin turns to leather.

It's those arms that threw us off. She's just ripped as hell!

[@sonjamclean1676]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@Brovey]

I watched this like 10 times, It's so satisfying to watch xD

[@WickedSalty]

I can do that, here hold my beer.

[@jondehoff4512]

omg it's you

[@MartyD4u]

drink your beer and get that next boat in the water, your dog needs to sail.

[@anthonyrybczynski5420]

Wicked Salty That's awesome. I'm sure those skills will make you rich.

[@ihavevigors4742]

Wicked Salty HAHAHAHA FUCKING ORIGINAL COMMENT RIGHT THERE GOOD ONE HAHAHHA

[@ronen124]

I would be honoured but first let me go and comb my hair for 25 minutes (so I look good for the cameras)

[@fredwak]

Vaaaary nice!! Linda I'm coming by to learn that!

[@ethancryder8570]

I just learned how to do this cause I saw one of our summer employees do this the other week at the boat rental place I manage. Needless to say, I’m definitely gonna get this down perfect to up the tips I get handed when boats come back lol

[@dougholdem2898]

Thanks for giving me something to work on this summer

[@istvangergely454]

Szavam elakad, szemem fennakad ! Ez az igazi gyakorlati tudás! Gratulálok !

[@growmiegreenthumb8025]

This is what wonder woman does for retirement. Still rocking the lasso

[@logan3776]

That type of line of work is very common in places with lots of rental boats that need a fast turnaround. It’s very common to see that in busy marinas as a fast temporary solution to tying off a boat.

[@062050]

Thought I was good...... I need to go back to school! Great skill. Great post!

[@thanostheodorakopoulos7992]

Fantastic, never seen something like this

[@willriley1619]

Nice I learned how to do that awhile ago but it does take some practice. good job

[@Overtatedowl]

Nice yeller fin you got there... built right here in ole FL

[@dustinallenphoto]

got stoked when I saw the Frenchys logo at the end. vaca down there every year during the illinois winter and its always a must stop!

[@guloguloguy]

I'm in LOVE!!!

[@hendrikbteb2317]

Hahaha LOL now I know what Iam going to practice next week. Thanks for the idea.

[@jasminefranc5889]

Seems like such nice people. Have a great day

incredible the best I have seen.

[@MyTube4Utoo]

After watching it twice, I now feel like I'm an expert at it, also. That's what many years of KZbin has done to me.

[@mbrunnme]

You do it at all and I'll be impressed.

[@pforce9]

I did this once 45 years ago during a race, from the high side and everyone saw it but I was never able to do it again and I have since forgotten who was on the boat that saw it.

[@iana6145]

the guys on Shem Creek in Charleston do it like that its pretty impressive

[@EthanAnthony907]

You did a little smiley face there, cute. Just make sure you keep those remarks on youtube because im the type of guy you do that shit behind her back infront of me we are going to....have a little conversation off to the side. I cant stand a bully.

[@modenajon]

Are you trying to say I was being a bully? Ummm, I sincerely thought that was a man. I wasn't trying to be mean however I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings. No need to play tough over the Internet. Simple mistake.

[@EthanAnthony907]

Those are some skills. Maybe I should practice that.

Haha I’ve been there a lot and have yet to see her, but I’ve been practicing haha

[@integr8er66]

That is very nice skills

[@grahamallen934]

Good one..she's swift and slick..

[@tiltshifttom]

I wish most of the boats/deckhands that I lock through had skills like this.

[@Taylorhorton]

I can do that, learned it while dock handling at Catalina, CA... also from much farther away.... the locking technique actually came in handy while working.... Also I looked bad ass for the stripper boat haha

[@gatoslokosforever]

do a video or stfu

[@harrihiltunen1244]

fantastic way take the knots.....

[@IronRhinoEA]

mad skills !

[@eventhisidistaken]

That's some serious skill.

[@YaGottaBeKidding]

That's some sweet line handling. Nice, Linda!

[@shaun1040]

This is pretty easy to do. Most dockstaff who've worked the job over a year would know how to do this. Especially at a big or busy marina.

[@johnd1401]

wow amazing

[@malibucastle]

The 8s I can do but the cinch is where I’m impressed

[@RazsterTW]

Skills!

[@Pasovineyard]

In windy conditions blowing you away from the dock. You can stand on deck and swirl the dock line around the cleat. Jumping onto the dock and trying hold a large boat is dangerous. Good video.

[@wayneoneal7952]

fine job...practice makes perfect

[@Windlass123]

Really cool ...!!!

[@freesemag]

I need to try this

[@VicsYard]

Sweet!!!!

[@user-ec2kd8sz3t]

I still can't comprehend what she just did there... even in slow motion.

[@robertroberts8651]

Linda, you're awesome! don't let anyone tell you different

[@nemo227]

I bought a new, flexible rope (line) so I could practice doing that on dry land with no witnesses. If I get it down and learn a few knots then I'll have confidence to take my boat to the launching area.

[@nicholascarver1]

Linda rocks

[@libertyphoenix5615]

Lol I will never be able to do that shes talented as hell

She's been doing that a long minute!!

[@lifeislikesailing]

very cool! :)

[@aubreyaub]

Bloody good Hey!

[@atypical_moto]

It's really quite easy to learn. When I was in SD on a sail boat with my dad as a kid, I saw the dock guy do it like she did. I practiced and was able to do it by the end of the day. You just need to learn how to get the loop to fall on the cleat right to finish.

[@ro4317]

Impressive to watch but totally incorrect procedure in many ways.

[@zitin4845]

Not quite as long as you know what you are doing making sure the rope is tight between dock and boat
