Prop walk pulls the stern to starboard when docking at a port tie slip. Any advice? Also, any tricks for determining how close the boat is to the dock when coming into a slip? With a dodger over the companionway and having to stay at the helm to control the engine, it's hard to gauge the distance. I've been enjoying your your videos. Thanks.
Very good ribs! I have the Grand silverline 420 it is a small boat compared to the one in the video. But it is an excellent boat!, i recommend Grand as a brand
@@jurrevanderwerff3800 Thanks. Glad you are enjoying yours. Good to support Ukraine manufacturing too. I was looking at G580 with 150xs pro, but the lead times are very long now…
John Mendez you are a lifesaver I thoroughly enjoy your videos and they are very useful keep up your amazing work always learn something new thank you so much
This is an amazing video and I enjoyed every bit of it and am also excited to share my investment experience for 2021, I believe it will help a lot of people here that are confused on how to start the year and be productive for the vear
From my own point of view, you need to invest smartly, if you need the good things of life. so far i've made over $355k in raw profits from just q4 of the market from my diversified portfolio strategy and i believe anyone can do it you have the right strategy. mutual funds takes long time but investing smartly is the key for short term. Most of us tend to pay more attention to the shiniest position in the market to the cost of proper diversification.
@@benjaminotto5711 Wow!! this is super awesome. I'm willing to start saving properly or at least have a good investment. please tell me more about it. I'm an amateur investor, i have 2 IRAs, I do not like the cookie cutter responses from Fidelity, Vanguard Schwab, etc 7%-9% year on average, how do you invest?
@@kendrickjibson222 My portfolio is very much diversified so it's not like i have a particular fund i invest in, plus i don't do that by myself. i follow the trades of Karen Gaye Gray. She is a popular broker you might have heard of. I can correctly say she's worth her salt as a financial adviser as her diversification skills are top notch, I say because i see that in her results as my portfolio grows by averages of 10 to 15% on a monthly basis. unlike i can say for my IRA which has just been trudging along, my portfolio just mirrors what she trades and not just on some particular industries of my choosing.
@@benjaminotto5711 By following trades do you mean copying her trades,as is done in etoro? Are you giving her your money or the money stays in your account? I have heard about copying trades but have not looked into it but i havan idea of what it is.
Yeah exactly. My money stays right in my account. It's all programmatic, plus it's relatively much easier to set up and connect my accounts than creating a financial pan and drafting investment strategies myself, my account just mirrors her trades in realtime
It's the same in any small boat and much the same in a larger boat. If it's an inboard that can prop walk then slightly different at slow speeds. In a catamaran we usually use one engine in forward and reverse. André in Sydney

Thank you mr. Mendez very informative video for my work!
Very useful, for a new boater. 👍🏻

Thanks!! I have a question how you undock if the wind pushes you to the dock and you have two other boats parked very near to you? Thanks again
Any way to have in person training with John? I am an experienced boat handler but, I want to be always improving
Nice work. how do you rate the Grand ribs? That looks a very good spec Goldenline.

Another superb explanation by Jon, love the series!
Having a big rubber boat sure makes things easier. Don't you think?
It's the same in any small boat and much the same in a larger boat. If it's an inboard that can prop walk then slightly different at slow speeds. In a catamaran we usually use one engine in forward and reverse. André in Sydney
@@SoundzAlive1 The idea is that you can bump a rubber boat against the dock much harder with no damage.
It's easier to fix gelcoat than a pierced tubes. Have both in our charter.
I had a rib and my biggest fear was the tubes would be pierced by the oyster shells that grow underneath the dock.
In my opinion, the key in your explanation is ‚momentum‘. ‚Neutral is your friend‘ helped me especially in narrow mediterranean harbours.
can't you also use your bow and stern thrusters???
Not necessary on a rib that size
That would be gay, if it had any in the first place.
Classic Mendez, the old egg on the pontoon analogy ! Humour aside, great simple advice as ever
Brilliant how to vid as usual, the explanation and camera angles made this easy to understand 👍🇬🇧❤️
what boat is this? :)
Looks like a Golden Line 750
