Single handed & unassisted berthing of a 47’ sailboat⛵️ Ep61

[@Sailing360]

Nicely done why is the chest cam stuttering? wondering if you should try a faster microSD card in that camera?

[@bruce3077]

I did explain in the description that I accidentally must have had the GoPro set to time lapse, then had to slow it down in editing, hence the stuttering😊 Hopefully that's what occurred, and not GoPro defaulting to time lapse on it's own😜

@@bruce3077 LOL I missed that - thank you for the video.. getting to terms with parking my 47foot as well. and have a tendency to back in.. love seeing how others do this stuff.

I don't pretend to be an expert, but as mentioned I do love the boat handling side of boating! At this dock I reverse in, because often there is a side wind that pushes the boat against the dock, so it's easier to leave it facing forward😊 I'm also interested in how others do it👌

And no wind….

[@bruce3077]

No to little wind helps,...but I've done it before and since with wind! One time in the Med, it took 3-4 passes/attempts with an off dock quite strong wind, with not a soul around to help😅

Unassisted? You had a diesel engine! Next time try sailing in.

[@bruce3077]

Next time has already passed, but I'd love to try that one 👌 Have you done it yourself?
