How To Dock a Boat the Best Way - CLOSE QUARTERS | Gale Force Twins

quite nice to see 2 young ladies educate and illustrate without using the string bikini method for views - well done!

Ladies I was in the Navy for over 20 years and am nicknamed Boats, my kids, brother and even my wife call me Boats to this day. Having said that I commend you on your seamanship, great job! Ive seen so many people use too much motor, too fast of an approach and stall, and have to break out the fiberglass gear to make a repair. Tight lines!

"Slow goes bump. Fast goes crash." Best motto for docking.

[@ScurvyRelics]

My favorite line is never come in faster than you want to hit the dock

[@ScurvyRelics]

Lol I just got to the point in the video where she said it

[@NilsHedstrom]

So true but if it is windy you will need more speed however.

[@jstr66]

@@ScurvyRelics me too. And that's the one they used.

[@jstr66]

@@NilsHedstrom if the wind is against you, yes. But if you are headed downwind to your dock, the wind will add extra speed you can't counter so it's best to go slower.

[@lestersitotrying6841]

Guys my wife and I watch your videos all the time. I’m new to the boating world and I have learned a lot from your material. Keep on going and muchas gracias

[@snomofilms]

Not gonna lie, that was pretty damn impressive 👍😍😊

[@KennyFishbone]

A tricky maneuver is one thing. Talking/explaining while doing a tricky maneuver is a work of art! I have to do this with a single...20' boat in a 25' channel...if its high tide! Luckily its mud on both sides

[@sharonbraselton3135]

[@TroyPosey]

Phenomenal job on turning and docking that boat. A 35' OAL boat is a lot more than most people can handle...Especially oscillating it 180º in a 40' wide canal without so much as a bump or scratch...And NEVER touched the wheel. Yall make it look easy. 👍🏻

[@kirkwilliams4942]

So great, would love to see these docking maneuvers with a single if you ever get the chance:-) Keep it up. I've docked much larger twin diesels and twins are so nice, the singles are so much more difficult... for me.

[@Needfreedom8953]

Two young ladies who make my boating experience seem trivial. Thank you for the lesson! Great Job!

[@far77fae]

I learn so much from you two. So clear and not making any assumptions that I know anything about boating as I don't know anything about boating but now I feel I can park a boat.

[@bobbarnes4399]

These girls do a fantastic job.

[@aquaman461]

Great content. Too many fishing channels focus just on the fishing aspect neglecting the boating component. Ive had 6 boats and im still learning new skills so i applaud your broad focus on the sport! Nice job ladies.!👏👏

[@jerrybalabanian5589]

Nice job ladies you explained how to maneuver a boat professionally you showed it professionally unlike somebody else who relies on the bow thruster and it had a stern thruster would also rely on that to suck the Stern into the doc you did a professional job my hats off to you

[@chuckmvs]

That's the beauty of having twin screws.

[@McUser1965]

The other way around is also nice!

[@sailingandboating]

Perfect. You did a fantastic job. So many times, I see people rushing to jump off the boat and grabs things they shouldn't. Just let the captain do the docking the correct way, and so many mistakes, injuries and bumps will be avoided. Great job!

[@ahsahm]

I am SO impressed with you guys. I usually don't comment on YT boat tip videos because usually the tips are not the best practices. You have such a deft touch, you are so in tune with your boat. These are the things I've been teaching my now 11 year old daughter. Take your time, it's not a race, plan your moves, it's not going to react immediately like a car. Read the wind and current. I'm curious, how long have you been boating and how did you learn? Loved this, I'm going to subscribe to this channel.

With a single sterndrive, I was always taught to use the method you describe at the end. Nose in, and pull the stern into the dock with reverse. You guys are amazing at what you do! Keep up the good work

When I first saw a show of yours I became addicted to the shows immediately, The way you explain everything especially in this film is so educational. I love the part when you said "stop the boat does not mean put it in neutral it means put it in reverse! " than you showed how the boat was completely stopped. I am so impressed by you two young girls, you have the whole world in your hands, your unlimited where you can go. NEVER change! I am Officially subscribed!

[@brianmcnulty966]

Thanks so much for this tutorial. I have tried to get my 26 ft boat with twin 225 Yamaha's lined up with my boat lift (usually by myself) and I didn't really understand about the better control while backing.This will also come in handy when docking at a restaurant or even getting gas at a crowded marina. I need to spend more time practicing and definitely will watch this video over and over. When the wind or current happens, my tendency is to panic and overcompensate but now I know not to be heavy on the forward throttle. I agree with thegrtwhthunter that it is nice to see two beautiful young ladies educate rather than be exploited in string bikinis!

[@GaleForceTwins]

Thank you so much! We are happy to hear that you found this video helpful 😊 you will get better in no time! Just go as slow as you want to hit the dock

Great job guys. I can see this channel getting to 1 million subscribes soon.

[@growlith6969]

Excellent video, definitely learned a ton since my dual engine experience is in the single digit hour range. Would like to point out that the reason that the forward running engine has more influence at lower RPM's is because of the propeller design. The propellers are designed to push water most efficiently going forward through how the water flow is introduced to the blades, the pitch, and the slope and even a small amount of flair at the blade edge. Turned in reverse fashion they do still move water but with nowhere near as much efficiency and thrust as forward. So that's why you need more RPM in reverse to get equal amounts of thrust as the forward running prop. Neat video idea if nobody has done it: Source a sort of junky boat and motor combo (because it just might cavitate and blow up or even break the blades off), mill the propeller down so that it fits on backwards, compare forward performance with it on correctly with reverse as well as driving forward and reverse. Should be awful but entertaining. :-)

[@JT-ee1ii]

I definitely agree to anyone else watching this video that backing up a little farther past the dock and then putting the boat back in gear and driving up alongside the dock is the "easiest" way to dock imo. Also, I love the colors of yours and the neighbors houses! We have a lot more Navy and Brown homes up where I am in the Mid-Atlantic.

[@DHKEYWEST1]

LOL In the Army we had LCM & LCU. The LCU was 120 feet and 3 props. It has been too long since I ran one, but you throw one engine in reverse, one in forward and I think you throw the steering the opposite direction you want to go and it would crab side ways into the dock. I think the Army had gotten rid of most LCU.

[@jeffstock3590]

DAVID HENDRIX I was on a LCU during a deployment to Haiti. Don't forget about the bow thrusters.GO ARMY !!

[@DHKEYWEST1]

@@jeffstock3590 Jeff I ran them for 2 years at Fort Eustis. They had 3 shafts, 3 rudders and 3 throttles. What I recall they were like Mike boats, 2 671 engines coupled to each shaft. It was weird how you would get the 120 boat to crab side ways to the dock. Wheel was thrown to the opposite direction and one throttle was shifted forward or reverse and the other throttle was shifted in the opposite direction and what i recall center throttle in neutral, I looked on goggle several months ago and mist of the boats are gone. I heard the navy has ordered some new LCU.
