I’ll be on my boat all weekend but staying in my wet slip and watch the show ,I call it BOAT TV . Be safe folks have a great Memorial Day !

Nose in, immediately wrap the front rope around pole/cleat. Then reverse, pull rear into dock.

[@tomrogers9467]

You have made the assumption that this moron understands basic seamanship. I beg to disagree.

[@southbound141]

I never really considered how inexperienced boat owners can be, I’m from a small town in south LA. and we all grow up with boats, driving, docking, backing up, from a young age. This is wild to me

Well, that first might pulling his trailer under water, lol!!! And I'll have to say that the Red Hair girl on the blue liner, knowz what she's doing, cuz unfortunately not many do..lol!! Guaranteed she does a better job with 2 outboards that that cap...lol! Keep 'em coming Broncos guru 👍🏼

Scarab Sport 302. I had one for a decade hence my user name. That is a mid 1990's redone with new console, arch and engines and of course paint job. it was done very nice. Hope that "captain" keeps it that way.

[@wjsj69]

Why do I never see anyone with twins using them to their advantage? Zero turn radius like a tank? More money than brains is probably the leading cause. If you're clueless about how to approach a dock with one engine, I guess the advantage of another engine is lost..

[@etc-and-more]

You are right but it is a little harder with outboards right next to one another. Works great on a cat hull or with inboards. These guys really just need to get one line secured and then back up against the line - this will pull them right into the dock.

[@59patrickw]

basic seamanship and boat handling practice practice practice

[@00000005547]

On most boats like that the zero turn is extremely weak. Except catamarans. Like even a little bit of current will completely overpower both your engines.

It amazes me how many people don't understand how to spin a boat around when you have two outboards.

[@dutchglobetrotter4513]

I know, you can go sidewards with two outboards.

[@elonmust7470]

These people aren't even in the ballpark of such basic skills.

[@jpat99]

Even worse, just watching your girl play tug of war with the boat instead of just bumping in gear to push the stern into the dock...

[@Chris_In_Texas]

Exactly on a twin, don't use the steering wheel, just use the throttles, much easier to deal with! All of my twins I never used the steering wheel around docks, only throttles. Even with my 76' very rarely did I even use bow and stern thrusters only on windy days fighting the high windage of the broadside. 😁⚓

[@TheByard]

Watching the skippers use the controls, I thought they were linked together and it was all or nothing, I asked in previous comments if one could be reversed while the other was in forward but got no reply. Fenders and lines both sides, coiled for easy precise throwing or casting over a bollard or cleat. So man lines are a bundle of knitting. A calm well prepared ahead of time crew. My old 1930s wooden boat originally fitted with twin Penter inboard engines, shafts and props either side of a center rudder. Swapped out for British Leyland 2.5 lt Diesel and later by me a pair of Ford 2.5 lts. same power half the size more room around the engines.. She had a deplacement hull and acted like a dream except when one prop was fouled by a large sand sack in 5 knots of current, one engine only gave steering wash one side of the rudder. Steering one way OK the other very slow and at the time I had to do a 180 head in under a swing bridge and into a lock.

[@farfallino5136]

When everything fails and there is no OTHER option, place YOURSELF between the boat and danger. You WILL HEAL, the boat won't! It's only an amputation if, the limb detaches.

[@shaheer.m2661]

What I don’t understand is how these people own boats yet don’t even know how to dock them. It’s really not that hard people 😂

[@TheByard]

They tend to moor only once per trip and so don't get much practice. Sail boat guys are the same, I've seen pirouetting around in the big ship locks of Holland.

that lady cop with the clutch hands. nice

[@RamBoZamBo123]

I never get why people already tied to the dock at the front line drift off. They should just put the engine in reverse pointing the propeller fully towards the dock. It will slowly pull the boat over, no problem, easy and smooth. Guess it would be too easy.

[@TheByard]

That's one way, another is to use a line over an earlier bollard and blip the outside engine throttle forward turned into the dock. I used the method on the River Thames with 5 knots of stream and 10 or 15 locks a day to get through, sometimes mooring on the waiting pontoon as well.

[@TheByard]

@@tomrogers9467 No I expect them to learn how to control a boat before setting out to sea with the family aboard. Did they take the whole family the first day they drove a car ?????

[@keithcooper4603]

I don't own a boat, but it make sense to buy two 100 ft good rope, cut in in half and wipe the cut end. Now you have four ropes to handle your boat

[@SlimWhittman]

I saw a friend get his lower leg crushed trying to use his foot to push off a 42 fountain that was about to rub the side of his 39 cigarette at the dock. The wind and current were pushing the boats together, they were not even running at the time. Never underestimate the power of the water or wind.

[@Ian-yf7cj]

I know you probably only show the numptys but what beats me is I haven’t seen one boat that’s had it securing ropes set tidy on the boat so they are ready to use when needed they are always in a mess or worse in knot’s. When folk buy a boat they should be made to take lessons in how to control them and go slowly.😂😂😂

The chain on first boat looks like & is in the same position of mine , to be the one foot chain attached to a steel cable of the hand winch on my trailer .... once the boat is mostly lined up ie.... the bow on or over the first roller , clip the chain on & at the front of trailer near the hitch crank a handle & the boat slowly comes up all the way & semi self aligns . Came standard on my trailer which is 20 years old ..... I'm surprised I don't seen them everywhere , cheap / simple / functional & very helpful

[@GingerNinja1]

All those boats & not a single one with side thrusters. If I spent the kind of money some do on the higher dollar vessels I'd definitely invest in them. (Of course that's coming from someone who's a co-capt not the actual capt 😁) Probably for a reason. 😂

[@JulieRainyPDX]

Just curious, do any boat ramps hire people on waverunners to help push boats to a dock when there's a strong current? Maybe if the assistance was mandatory, no one's ego would be offended?

[@reddysteddy2195]

That chain is for the cruel and unusual punishment of keel hauling. Obey your captain!

[@rcoolwind]

That lifted yellow jeep Wrangler is always parked there!

[@dennisjackson4085]

Let me tell the captain on the blue boat what to do in the future. First , the bow is tied off so the captain should turn hard to port. Apply a little throttle which will cause the stern of the vessel to swing around toward the dock. Make sure there is plenty of slack on the bow line to cpmpensate for the bow swing. Very simple, easy peezy.

[@NTCOX]

He’ll ya u got em coming today

[@wjatube]

Park Ranger offers you help. Meanwhile, you're hoping since he's downwind he doesn't smell how drunk you are.

[@leonardlaing6733]

I think the chain hanging on the front of the boat was to chip the hell out of the gel coat. I can’t think of any other purpose. Lol

[@DargoDog]

That 32ft boat was hard to watch, if he would have just moved the motors to port, put on in gear on idle in the forward direction, that boat would have lined up perfectly. One thing you always say makes my eye twitch, and that is about how much easier it is to let the boat drift into the dock. You have little control when you do this, I prefer to power into the wind and current when landing, this give so much more control, and actually makes landing a lot easier. The real trick to this is coming in at a steeper angle.

[@kabutabi5272]

[@QUIET151311]

I don't see boats with twins where the captain splits the engines. It a huge assistance when docking.

[@portblock]

I am not going to call the captains stupid, but I however will call them ignorant. 1: dont blame others for your poor actions, 2: learn to captain your vessel! Before all the poop talkers try to hate my comment; lemme explain, I went from never driving anything over a 9ft RIB (used for scuba off marina del rey) to a 40ft sport fisher. - First thing I did, I hired a captain to come with me as I floated it down from Santa Barbara to Marina del Rey - Made a day of it, pulled into Ventura harbor along the way and I learned a lot, asked a lot of questions. A week later, hired same captain to come teach me for the day how to dock and maneuver my boat - I made a lot of mistakes, but I learned. The biggest mistake I see these people make: 1: the put more throttle than steering. and also not knowing if they should forward steering left or reverse steering right 2: once the bow line is on the dock, simply put in reverse and bring the rear to the dock - GENTLY! 3: not having fore and aft ropes ready to go before they get to the dock. - if one person jumping off, jump off holding both ropes!!!! If I cam maneuver a 40ft in the wind between boats at my slip, so can these people, I am no one special, I just had a teacher and I practice all the time, even today 20years later! sometimes I try to align opposite side than normal and mix it up. Same with trailer, go to a big parking lot and practice!!!

[@harvey8695]

It looks like Yamaha is a popular brand at this ramp.

[@stevegiboney4493]

It is so easy to dock a boat, I see almost zero people at this ramp doing it right, you drive at the dock, not fast but not crawling, from across the fairway, a couple of feet away, you throw it in reverse and crank the wheel the opposite direction and tap the gas. It stops all your forward momentum, and sucks the boat ( with fenders out) up parallel to the dock. Simple.

[@Imdoyleking]

By my self, using your technique with fenders out and dock lines already tied to the boat, I can wrap my dock line, reverse boat with prop turned toward the dock and bingo boat is held against the dock until i get to the stern and tie it off. Oh, and I tell anybody on the dock that tries to help me, please don't, I got this. All they ever do is pull you too hard and always the wrong way.

[@VangoghsDoggo]

They all need to learn how to throw a loop and use a spring line. Would solve 90% of what happens. Use the middle cleat, that is what it is there for. If you tie one end or the other, the untied end will always float away from the dock.
