    This is just what I want: great footage, calm and professional commentary of an absolute boss performance leaving the dock. And it was nice how you put music to the rest of the clip.
    Much much respect to you Captain.

    Give your crew my compliments on being professional in their duties. Awesome responsability.

    Tristen - Amazing boat handling skills by you and the crew. Thanks for showing us how its done. One of the best parts of the video is actually at the 9:30 or so mark when you come out of the port and in the distance is the sailing yacht “A”. If I am right, it is the largest sail assisted yacht in the world owned by a Russian businessman who also owns the motor yacht the “A”. We were chartering a catamaran this winter in Anguilla, St. Martin and St. Barts and he was there that week with the boat, so we saw it up close. Pretty amazing vessel with a crew of 65, according to a couple of people in port with whom we spoke. We sailed up to one day in Aguilla....it is really impressive! Thanks again for all of your videos. You and your crew are fantastic!

    We hold our breath - we who are completely out of our league.
    You make the difficult seem easy.
    It really took little time, considering the mass of the boat.
    So it's true - slow is smooth, smooth is fast.
    I hope that your owner eventually asks you to captain an even larger yacht. You deserve it!!
    And take your crew!!

    Outstanding close quarters maneuvering! I remember while doing a sea trial with my most recent boat, a twin engine 31 foot express cruiser power boat, then at the end in close quarters in the marina my boat broker said "if you hit another boat or the dock do you want to be moving fast or slow?" So I learned quickly that slow and easy in close quarters is essential. Our boat's front half really did act like a sail with wind. Because of that I learned how to cleverly back into the wind to maneuver into tighter spaces. Success was a rush!

    AS a Boater it is always fascinating to watch non boaters trying to drive a boat the same way as they drive their car - everything done fast. Sloooowly, Sloooowly is what's needed in port. Like other posters, i'm surprised you do not have a rear camera view screen to view when on your docking stations.

Watching these docking and embarking videos makes me wish more super and up yachts visited us out in the middle of the pacific. In any case very impressed with the skills necessary your ports of call, insane indeed!

I loved all of the extra viewpoints that you gave us, plus your post-edit voice over as you were obviously a little preoccupied performing that extremely delicate and expertly helmed manoeuvre. When mooring, I am still not sure if you tension the ground lines to the fixed stern lines or vice-versa? More of these please. Can I also make another polite request for "a day in the life on board from Barbara's perspective" please.

    Neutral is your best friend! Nice and slow but if you have any problems put it straight in neutral! When using forward or reverse just click it into either gear for 1 or 2 seconds then straight back into neutral ! Asses then back into gear for 1 or 2 seconds then neutral again nice and slow cant go wrong! But your best friend is ALWAYS neutral !! Not difficult at all just patience and confidence! Great vid

    Totally insane! Wow, one has to clear the bow, the ground line of the boat in front, and turn the vessel whilst clearing the stern too, all at the same time!!! Talk about a tight spot! :O I'm shaking my head still trying to figure out how the wider stern cleared the other vessel's ground line. I mean, it was difficult enough for the narrower bow to clear it... just can't picture all of AWOL navigating this conundrum.
    It reminds me of the sofa I had delivered to my house last year - still can't figure out how they cleared an awkward doorway that opens into my den, but has a wall jutting out 1/3 of the way in front of the doorway. Supposedly they went "up" with the sofa and turned it, then walked it, then back down.... makes my head spin just thinking about it!!! LoL!!!
