[@andrewfyakim525]

Quote from Capt. Bill Bradley (rip); "My answer to seamanship, is to avoid situations that call for it".... I have docked in adverse conditions countless times. When the conditions were beyond my skill level I would leave; go out and anchor, and wait for favorable conditions; or just leave the marina/harbor and go somewhere else. In the 55 years I have been boating, I have never caused damage to another's boat.

[@Misteribel]

These are conditions that you are taught at sailing school to avoid. Stay out, or have a very well prepared crew, plus possibly use your anchor (if allowed), and an experienced captain. The main lesson here is: know your limits, and abort early. Always have full control of the boat. (And navy other lessons: crew management, fenders, preparation, line handling, boat handling and speed, etc).

[@OneHourNotice]

Weather conditions are not so bad. looks like the skipper and the crew are under influence of alcohol. Using anchor probably would make ten times more mess

how the hell would you use your anchor for docking your cat in a marina

[@davedavids9619]

Never done a Med mooring ? There are two options in a Med mooring. One is that you drop your anchor and then back up into the berth. Second option is to back up into the berth, put two stern lines ashore with slack, pick up the bow line, move a few meters forward, tie up the bow line, reverse to tighten up that bow line and then tighten up the stern lines. Doing that with your anchor makes controlling your bow a lot easier, but dropping an anchor is not allowed in many ports and marinas.

I’ve been in this weather/docking scenario more than a few times as crew and as captain. Just a guess but the captain is probably a bit inexperienced with this type/size boat. He probably didn’t have a plan or didn’t communicate it to his crew. He was not firmly in charge of his boat or crew and was most likely panicking/shutting down.

[@The_Touring_Jedi]

Winds in Croatia can be pretty heavy...I still remember first day offshore😂 and first storm winds gusting W/NW 18feet motor boat and guy that rented tells me go straight to docking direction N-NE and throw ropes we will catch you at entrance.It was helpful learning a lot about sailing and boats even more then needed for skipper licence made in Croatia. It was a sudden kick which told me go into the Harbor make U turn and steer against the wind. If I did as they told me that boat would be in pieces....thank God to many videos I watched and lot of books I read during that time. I can park 40 Tons semi trailer almost anywhere I want...but I can easily say sailing is another level and it needs clear mind and constant adjustment as those winds and Sea can be unpredictable.

[@looneyirish007]

That was really hard to watch, no fenders out and full throttle no matter what direction he went. it looks around force 5-6 Which is challenging for many and worse if you're new to boating. It's a high pressure manuver for many., Especially with idiots just standing there with their phones out. Before attempting to berth stern-to, he should have gone over a plan of action with the crew, who was going to be on ropes or fenders before coming in for an attempt, he also needed a crew member spotting for him and communicating the stern and hull distance from the other yachts, this would have kept things a bit calmer at the helm as it was a second pair of eyes,it's a big enough yacht and probably has blind spots, the crew on deck not on ropes should have been ready with the fenders and the boats already moord, especially the starboard yacht @ 2:05 should have took their stern & mid ships rope and walked them in with light bursts of prop as this was the safest option, he had a stern rope on the dock and this should have been but round a clear, but nobody was pulling him in , not a single person knew what the fuck they were doing, including the owners of the 3 boats, when the bow started to swing to starboard @ 2:37 he should have counter steered away from the port side yacht and the bow would have swung back to port, but he panics, and guns it. I didn't hear any thrusters being used so Im guessing they aren't equipped which is baffling. The yacht on the port side should have had crew out on deck with fenders protecting their hull. It was an absolute shit show and panic had set in making everything worse and he just couldn't keep his hand off the power. This maneuver didn't really need to power and just quick prop bursts to keep the yacht steady. If you're new to boating, stay up to date with the weather, apps on your phones are free and have wind speed, rain, would waved etc etc on them and for the love of god, try to be moored up before you're in winds like this, especially knowing your having to berth stern to the dock. I found myself shouting directions at the screen, because nobody took charge of the situation. And theres always situations happening like this and if I'm tied up I'm always out on deck or dock to help mooring craft, be it taking their ropes or verbally directing the new boaters in difficult conditions. New boaters always go for the power, and it just makes things worse, every single time.

It is easy............an easy decision. As soon as you realize this is above your confidence level you either abort or decide not to go in at all. You stay out, drop the anchor, get on the radio or the phone (if you don't want to stay out at anchor) and ask if there is someone who can handle the boat in that weather. It may take a while, but eventually someone will say yes. You pick him / her up with the dinghy, you step aside, but pay attention and you let that person handle the boat. And if you cannot find anyone you simply stay out on anchor. May not be what you were looking for, but at least there is no damage and you showed that you have a good set of brains, you know your limits.

Rolling his wheel way too much for catamaran. Crew is not prepared at all, pushing the boat of the pier with their legs is a bad idea too, with no fenders on the stern and on the sides... They failed to prepare, thus they were prepared to fail.🤕

[@volkerkonig9376]

docking backwards with strong wind on the pier ( and therefore with the wind from stern) is difficult and not for the fainthearted. But even this not so expierienced skipper made it nearly perfect in his second and final docking. But only nearly: 1.) it was a big crew with lots of men. But crew- management was lacking completely. And this is the job of the skipper. 2.) only one Fender on the side. 3.) when docking the second time the import port- sternline wasn't ready at all, moreover I didn't see a crewmember ready to threw it. 3.) with the port- sternline fixed first ( the strong wind had a port-tendency)the skipper could hold the yacht with the engine ( 2 of them)away and perpendicular from the pier. 4.) nobody was looking for the important mooringline to fix the bow( missing crew- management). Nevertheless, it was difficult to dock rearwards with a strong wind on the dock. Why not docking forward ? The boat is much more controllable ( especially with two engines) and if you organised to throw the bow- lines( crew- management!) you can get hold of the mooringline with no problem and fix the stern. Much easier!

That was alot of wind, so i sort of get it. And while i havent docked a catamaran, i feel like many are to scared to actually use their engines properly.

I think this could be a solution. The only risk is that the anchor get tangled with some lines or chaines of the mooring- line installation on ground of the harbour. So you should throw the anchor as far as possible away from the pier.

Not easy with such strong winds and a high windage boat like this cat... I am sure that the people watching and screaming don't help either. The skipper and crew probably lack experience as the basic strategy to enter the slot seems flawed. Basic idea should be to back against the wind into the slot from right to left with a target landing location very close to the left boat to compensate for wind drift towards the right. I am not sure whether they dropped the anchor at some point while going back in, but I understand it's normally part of the procedure for med mooring isn't it?

This is when your decision where to dock is influenced by what you want to do in the evening. Must go to Split at all costs! Manoeuvring is irrelevant here, the skipper made a bad decision hours ago and set himself up for failure by deciding to dock downwind at 25-30 kts of wind blowing across an open Split bay. Few thousand euros of damage will teach him a lesson. Granted, it may have been Friday so needed to come back to base in which case, come early or speak to charter to come early in the morning.

Biggest problem is that they don't ask for any proof at all that you can handle the boat. You may be able to sail, but docking is a different ball game, especially Med mooring. You need to learn it and to become proficient that simply takes time and a lot of practice. Unfortunately charter guests are not proficient, don't do a lot of practice and find themselves in situations where they should not be. Yet, all of them want to be on that pier instead of just staying out on anchor. And that is how the fun starts every day at 3 - 4 PM.

It's not on the marina. What a BS comment. The captain is ALWAYS responsible to avoid a collision. Drouge/sea anchor should have been out to control speed and position while backing with heavy wind into a narrow slip.

[@charliepick3923]

No way. There is an assumption of competence or like another poster said, if you can’t handle the docking scenario, in this case the strong breeze, just anchor out and wait so you don’t hit the other boats. Also, that cat is clearly a privately owned boat, too old to be a typical charter so the marina staff would assume that it’s not a credit card captain. But as we all know assumptions…in any case the marina staff owed that vessel nothing except to offer line handling ashore. Which they did and even that is at the direction of the skipper.

[@davedavids9619]

At 7.07 absolutely nobody was in command of that vessel. Both helm stations were deserted. WTF ? Then for a brief moment 'the captain' assumes control, only to leave the helm again to go over to the bow while the boat still is not moored properly. Why do they keep giving boats to people who cannot handle them ? I own my boat and I have to deal with idiots like this on a daily basis. This is one of the reasons why we stay out on anchor, but even there we are not safe from these sunday skippers. It is time for the charter companies to clean up their act and start demanding a proficiency test before guests can take a boat out. And if they are not proficient.........hire a captain.

[@awanderer9000]

Did not see any tight marina here, more like completely open water to do any maneuvers one can think of. Also loads of space between the boats at the pier.

[@bkluex5818]

Good things takes planning, bad things happens by themselves.... It seems that the skipper does not know his resources....(Ability determines what is allowed). At 0:22, they just had to change the stern line from starboard to port, give throttle forward at the starboard engine and after straighten its drifting slowly back with the wind-support into the dock and can be stoped with both engine forward.....

[@p0l0us]

It was also my first idea. Even, just pushing starboard forward and port backwards gently should point the bow upwind. And using fenders & other cat just let it slide back. But, as we see, both engines are off at that moment until the boat is turned by win 90deg. It seems they had mooring line in the prop or something - notice the guy on the shore holding the line at 0:55 commenting it. So I assume, they can't use engine before they released the prop, then wen backwards - away from the line. We didn't see the first attempt unfortunately...

[@jacekwronkowski5495]

Conditions for this particular spot were NOT difficult. Wind from the bow actually helps, LOTS of space - I'd fit another monohull there. Skipper shouldn't be allowed to drive a shop basket on an empty parking lot. And his crew management is as good as his botat handling. Totally irresponsible. Lifelong ban in all the charter companies.

[@skippy-rj5jd]

and all because idiots don't want to pay for a professional skipper.

[@thereisender]

unglaublich, so viele Personen an Bord und der Skipper teilt niemanden ein ?

[@josepmassot4696]

Deberían de retirarle la licencia de capitán a más de uno

[@evangelos1889]

i cannot understand who pay for all of this damages. Τhe "captain"(if we can say that) is in total confusion and the people on board had better not exist. Ιn no port, after all, is there a harbor guard to impose such fines on all these dangerous so-called captains that they will never return to command a vessel again

[@cyspearfishing]

A wanky wanky skipper:)😅

[@mahealanihawaii9830]

The dumbest crew. They have no idea how a boat works in the wind. That was an easy job for a trained crew.

Marin du dimanche !!!!!!

[@normenhammer8341]

Und ich dachte immer, man benötigt zum Chartern eines Bootes einen Qualifikationsnachweis.

[@pat8676]

A absolut Desaster how charter companies Check they're customers in Med Countries Many of them sail with one person with a license, but not even one has an adequate experience to Handel a sailing boat. And for all sailors around is just luck or bad luck when they throw they ancor through the bay.....😡 Money first.....

[@mariosavva999]

Oh dear. Stick with Monohull

[@LNM0000]

[@onelayt]

[@z.pberic3061]
