So far, the best video I have seen on stern-to mooring with lazy lines or anchor. Super.

stop tying ropes on trees you dingbats ....

Anyone have advise on whether to use a bridle with a catamaran when doing long lines to shore. Oh and thanks for the video!

Looks like Vathi.

For decades, we have been using this technique in the agean see Turkish coast. Please do not tie Around a tree, it is very harmful, you may crack down the tree by the force of the wind. Line to shore technique is not a must, but necessary to open space to new yachts where crowded. If you cannot find a rock , please do not tie to a tree.

Compared to a muring line... the anchor can never hold you so tight in position... how to you prevent the boat from collidinig with the pier backwards.. the anchor can not prevent it from moving backwards?

Nice and short -- in a crosswind situation where you don't want to swing, what would be the recommended exit strategy?

Brilliant advice, simple and to the point, thanks

Think, with 2 crew it is more easy to pull line from the boat side to shore.

I think the robe broke tree İ was suprıse they allow at the Greece At Turkey they dont allow the tide the rope to the trees Take care Happy sailing

Very good video. Short, straight to the point and no nonsense. Subscribed 👍

🔥🔥🔥🔥

Klampenschlag????

Nice maneuver with proper use of the truster!!

I think I recognise those voices! Great video.

Looks absolutely fabulous..... Holiday of a lifetime!

Great video! I recommend wearing gloves when touching/handling a lazy line that has been on the bottom for a long time. Sometimes they're nasty and have 'sharp sealife' on them.

simply a great video.

Hello. Is this boat available to buy it?

fantastic, where is this?

fumigation from what??

straight and to the point great vid. so many of these vlogs do these endless boring explanations leading up to the manoeuvre. message to all other vloggers. give us sailors what we all want. the manoeuvre in as short a timeframe as required. sorry but we don't want to listen to you guys giving us war and peace :)

no snubbing?

Fantastic condition for a boat that has done 12 seasons of charter work. A testament to the whole Nisos team!

As an owner of a long keeled norwegian made 33 feet sailboat from the 70's, it blows my mind to this day that people have steering in reverse. Well well, at least we sail these sexy classics instead of mcdonalds sailboats. I just have to go 90 degress to port to stretch out my anchor chain though. Sorry, I'll "drift" away in the night, lol

their anchors are placed in seaweed and will not hold boats well))and in Turkey they would be fined by the maritime police for tying mooring lines for trees

The only addition I would add especially for Turkey lazy line mooring, is once the stern lines are on, let out 3-4 metres of the stern lines so the boat moves away from the pontoon to enable as much lazy line to be taken up before locking it down; then reversing back to the pontoon taking in the stern line slack until your boat is as close to the pontoon as you need, then lock off the stern lines too

Especially children, it's better to tie the fender before putting over it over the side. I've seen fenders dropped in the water whilst trying to be tied on. The bow mooring line wasn't led to the cleat very well.

What's the point in paying for a mooring that has no lazy lines, with the risk of crossing anchor lines, and cause damage to the boats? Better fill water at gas station and stay in the bay. Wtf

❤️❤️

I love the linesmen bringing out the stern lines. Great job.

Awesome video, pretty nice and clean way to show how it should be done. Well done! I personally put a big fender to the stern because I'm not that experienced - yet. ;)

Came to learn more about Ionian boat charter - stayed for the absolutely beautiful and creative video and audio production... well done!

Very competent crew you have, sir. It's just simply pleasure to watch. Very nice tutorial too. :)

Any advice for single handed and with no windlass?

Please try to show a video where the windward and leeward-lines are fixed to rocks, not at a tree. Trees become massiv damaged. Thx

I liked how you conveyed its literally childs play if you know what your doing. Good video. I have wondered if buoys on anchors might help prevent some of the crossing that sometimes happens but in busy harbours this is maybe not practical? Be interested in your thoughts.

I don't know how you got the music past the TH-cam fun police but it made me chuckle at any rate. I'm looking at a rough project on ebay...but I have come to the conclusion that I don't have the time...money.....or skill to do it justice. Cracking Job Gents 👏

Should have been sailing Choosy last month 😢 can’t wait until next May. Best wishes for a better half of 2020 hope the rest of the year goes well for Nisos staff Keep up the great work you do 😊👍

Thats our old boat!! I was crew with Malcolm (posted below) and this boat not only saved many lives but looked after us beautifully. You might be interested in a BBC documentary filmed in the mid 90's about a shout myself and 2 other crew where involved in. Its on TH-cam.. th-cam.com/video/zj1zMEDuRWE/w-d-xo.html

Great video

CANNOT LOAD IT🙁

very good

Thanks for these tips. In this video and also in the couple of similar videos it is not visible to me the following: When my crew member ties line to a tree and bring the other end of line back to the boat, I saw in this video (and others) that the line is then fed into the winch? How do you then tie the line on to the cleat if it goes through the winch?

Great video

Good tips..

Only good video about med mooring.. thanks for your work..

Well done. My problem has allways been how to determine whether or not the particular marina wants you to put down your anchor or whether there are lazy lines ready to be used.

Lovely boat great for a family of four

Hi Barry, yes just leave in reverse as long as the anchor has a hold. Always cover the throttle in case it doesn't hold and you need to put into neutral or even fwd gear to keep the stern off the quay. Thanks
