If the owner of that boat reads this, all you had to do was motor forward with that midship line attached and you would have come in right along the dock. Just as pretty as you please.
It would be easier to just drive forward and use the line as a spring, it will bring the bota in and then just let it stay in gear which will keep it in place while putting on all the other lines.
We all have to learn somehow, either by making mistakes or watching other peoples! All he needed was to spend a little less on the boat and a little more on some training.
Most commentators didn't really understand the situation in the video, did they? But the main thing is to give good advice. I think: The skipper is trying to untie the rope after refilling the tank. The rope belongs to the fuel station and was caught under the MIDDLE-CLEAT of the vessel. The dock- hand can't do anything, the rope is spliced to the bollard. 😉 Question 1: How is it possible to jam the rope under the cleat? The rope is too thick for the small cleat. The skipper probably made a whole turn around the foot of the cleat. I suspect he used the OXO method. Question 2: How do you get out of this situation? The boat has to be moored again in order to relieve and release this jammed middle cleat. Question 3: What is the most elegant way to dock the boat in this situation? The boat already has a middle spring. 🤣 The skipper only has to put the engine in forward-gear and the vessel will dock itself with the middle-aft-spring. If the Wind is to strong use the bow-thruster to support the turning into the wind. Then attach a fore line and an aft line. Disengage the engine and thereby relieve the middle-spring. Now it should be possible to release the middle-spring again, don't you think? What do we learn from this? When using a cleat, make sure that you do not make a full turn around the base of the cleat. Especially if the line is too thick for the cleat. 🤣 Regards Btw: Gorden Lamp was totally wrong with his analysis! 🤣👎
@@carbidegrd1 He is already tied midship, it doesn't work in a strong blow. Stern cleat and power up with helm hard starboard. Basically prop torque and line tension vs wind. I've docked single screw 55' hull no bow thruster in 30 knot blow like that. You got to have crew catch the bow line quick otherwise you'll bounce off.
Admiral Genius No, the boat wont come along side because wind is blowing starboard. He need to secure bowline, that is correct but then he has to do reverse to aproach stern.
In theory that would have done the trick, but it does require some helmsmanship. The midship spring will impart rotation under forward throttle (clockwise in this case), so you'd have to helm to leeward. It's a balancing act that can end with the bow drifting downwind, or smacking into the dock. A safer way, in my opinion, is to use a forward line, sprung aft. Helm hard to leeward, idle forward. The stern will walk itself in nicely with no drama.
I'm surprised at how many viewers are struggling to understand what is really happening in this situation... It is obvious that he is trying to get OFF of the dock. The line is too tight for him to loosen it from the boat's cleat while under tension. The line is the Fuel Dock's line and they don't want it cut - this also explains why they're not releasing it from the dock side. Perhaps view the full scope of the situation before you start captaining the cap'n.
Yes, indeed. But it is so much easier to just make fun of them... especially with their nice Oceanis 48 (that is most probably a charter boat). Now, it is true that they probably didn't attach the rope properly on the cleat (it seems hard to remove even when the boat is close enough to dock that it is not under tension) and that they should have removed this rope first or at least not last...
A few issues with this video: first, it's quite likely a breach of privacy (not even the boat's name blurred); second, instead of pointing the camera for 15mins the author could have gone down and see if he could help, no?; third, and this also goes to all the pundits down below, it's not made clear that the couple onboard is trying to LEAVE the dock and the white line belongs to the dock (not shown at the end, convenient cut), not to the boat
The bloody Oceanus has a bow thruster! How could you eff that up? I have been handling single screw sailboats for over 50 years, and never did anything that stupid (well except the time I put a bow sprit through the gas dock office building! LOL)!
Sheesh... from the comments you'd think everyone has done this and done it well their first time at bat. Humanity is taking a moral ride down the toilet for sure.
I think Gordon Lamb, several comments down, gave some good advice,,, and there are a half dozen more comments here that would work well. It goes for both docking and undocking, training and technique are priceless. What I have not seen here, and the very first thing I saw,,, what the heck is a low hours sailor, even leaving his slip for? He and she should certainly,, not maybe, have stayed in their slip or mooring, and sat back drinking. If it is blowing 20 to 25 in the harbor, there are 2 to 4 meter seas outside the jetty. It is obvious he and she would not be able to handle that. The real flaw is sailing on a clock. I have to be at work Monday. I have a dinner appointment. I paid for this vacation and I am going. ,,,, these are all really stupid things to think or say when facing that BIG BLUE WET THING out there,,, the OCEAN. You 'sail on the tide',, only and always. Your clock, your schedule is NOT the ocean's clock or schedule. To head out, or head home, if the weather or tide is not right is just the height of stupidity. Absolute, suicidal, hubris. Yes, I HAVE made that error,,,, and I'll not do it again ever.
Simply incompetent and no thought... First come bow line.... Looks like wind 90 degrees under motor nose in attach bow line then she swings into position to be hauled in by stern line very simple
Klein Watervalplaas exactly. the way to go. plan ahead. assess the wind situation. explain to the wifey your plan. send her to the bow and to throw the line when close enough. manouver the boat,
Reading the comments, it looks like most of you watched a different video. Lol. What I see, is that they are done getting fuel and are trying to leave but they can't get the midship line uncleated. They then attempted to take the load off the midship line by putting the stern line back on then finding it insufficient, they reinstalled the bow line giving enough slack to remove the midship line and give it back to the dock handler.
Correct. All they had to do was motor forward put the bowline on again. replace the mid-ship line with a slip let go the bow and easy the mid ship slip. Should have taken less than 1 minute.
Michael Sandor yeah I'm a truck driver well have years at it dint it anymore unless I have to.... But every time I tie a line it's tied so it can be untied even my shoelaces even when I tire shut the top of my trash bags that are going to the dump..... When you tie any line you always tie it so it! Be easily untied with little effort and with hand... The only exception is in climbing lines.... Those you tie so that no one else can untie them with you dangling from it lol.... That is done with knots that hold fast under compression and only release when the load is removed....
Sorry but that's ridiculous. I would break up the Action. Bad Skipper, Ok strong Wind, a idiotic Marinero, Mr. Melnitschenko on the left side has a funny Theater for free :-)
If he powers forward the boat will sit at the dock at ease .. he has a stern line already hooked up.. Then loop an another line and undo the stuck line ..
Motor ahead to pull the boat alongside and/or throw a bowline over and have the guy on the dock pull the bow over and tie it off, problem solved. It's not THAT difficult. It's the same concept regardless of the size of the boat. Wow.
La connerie typiquement à la française...il oublie qu'il a un moteur et une hélice ? Si pas deux? Quand je les vois en Croatie je m'en éloigne....c'est mieux
That non-seaworthy owner was risking damage to a million-dollar yacht to save a $100 line. If you encounter this after foolishly fouling a cleat tie (and you don't have the skill to simply motor forward, as in this case), cut the line and go.
Mein Gott, ist das peinlich! Man sieht wieder: Geld ersetzt eben keine Intelligenz. Denn der Schönwetter-Skipper hätte nur den Vorwärtsgang einlegen müssen, das Ruder voll nach Steuerbord und ein wenig Gas geben, er wäre so längsseits gekommen und hätte mit 2 Handgriffen "das Bändle" von Poller lösen können. Ich empfand beim Ansehen des Videos echtes Fremdschämen...
Wink Butz is almost right. It simply will never happen no matter how much power he puts on - the bows will always blow off. The simple solution would be to transfer the line to midships cleat, motor gently forwards probably with a little port helm on (in that wind he may not even need that) and he will land gently against the pontoon. The curious thing is that nobody seems to teach mooring single handed with a midships cleat. Actually I prefer to do it this way in all circumstances because, when you pass a bow line to that helpful person on the dock, you can virtually guarantee they will try to stop you with it and you end up with your stern swing out.
This was the biggest cluster ---- I have ever seen. Total lack of knowledge of boat handling and dock assistance. This operation should have taken less than 2 minutes after the stern line was caught. Embarassing to watch. To have such an expensive boat and not know how to handle it....wow.
perfect example why some people don't need to be on the water and that includes the guy on the dock as well ....it all boils down to You Can't Fix Stupid John Liverpool is right the spring line should have been all he needed to get the boat to the dock .....prior planning prevents piss poor performance
Back to square one and restart. Simple as that. Also the lines shouldn't be fixed on the dock, they have to use a line that can be slipped, god damit! Never would sail with that crew!
Sorry but that was ridiculous, he needed to set up lines fore, aft and midship, (preplanning) then head directly toward the dock ((wind coming off the dock) and turn and with the help of the dock master he gets close, goes to the bow throws the forward line and returns to the helm to revers engine and turn rudder starboard. Of course if he had learned on smaller vessels previously he would have the experience. Not that I havent made many mistakes, but I have never done that.
All he had to do was engage forward gear.. that spring would have put him beam on to the dock in 30 seconds.. too much fucking money and no seamanship skills.
On a de l'argent pour s'acheter un 48' tout neuf, moins pour prendre des cours. MDR. il suffit de passer une amarre sur le taquet de devant, et tirer en marche arrière, barre à tribord. Même sans propulseur d'étrave ca marche.
THIS WAS SO STUPID, ALL THE SKIPPER HAD TO DO WAS DRIVE FORWARD AFTER THEY GOT THE STERN LINE ON.. THE BOAT WILL COME IN AND TURNING TO STARBOARD WOULD HAVE HELPED, BUT THIS WAS NOT A PROBLEM.. HE HAD LOTS OF ROOM, AND WAS A VERY POORLY QUALIFIED CAPTAIN IF HE COULDN'T GET THE BOAT OVER... I HAVE DONE THIS MANY TIMES WITH A SINGLE ENGINE AND A TWIN ENGINE BOAT, IT WORKS EVERY TIME...!
It's apparent to me that some people have more money than brains (or boat handling skill)... wind off the beam really pushes the bow of most sailboats.
Not one person here has the idea (well I read one does), he is exited the gas pumps and spring line has too much pressure on it to release. He either has to dock again (release the spring line) and exit or I would just sacrifice the spring line by cutting it.
Schmerzhaft hier zuzusehen. Wenn schon achteraus an die Pier, dann die Sb-Heckleine zuerst belegen und mit Ruderstellung hart Steuerbord reinmotoren. Mit Gefühl Gas geben und nach vollzogener Drehung Ruderstellung mittschiffs und die Yacht presst sich sanft längsseits an die Pier. Alternativ wär noch das Anlegen mit der Vorspring
Sad ! Should not be in the marina and the guy at the dock should be pumping gas for a service station at minimum wage.His best bet is trailer the boat at all times and stay to the right of the double line !!!!
Why on earth did they approach the station at this angle, stern in? the wind was strong on starboard pushing the bow away! They should have approached the station bow in on a 45 degree angle, secured the bow then the stern. The bow blows faster and easier in such winds.
I'm relieved to see everyone else in the comments here was thinking the same thing as me...forward and let it swing over plus why even use the midship dock line use a stern line and slowly forward problem solved.
All the people saying to just motor forwards... the line is too far aft given the strong wind: she cannot get enough forward turning effort to overcome the strong wind. The line should be fore of the center of turning effort for the vessel.
einfach in die erste Mittelleine ( Spring vorwärts eindampfen , Ruder auf Backbord legen und Heck ranziehen. Gas stehen lassen lassen Vor und Achterleine ausbringen Gas raus und Boot liegt
if it s to tied that means he made a wrong cleat knot. He seems pretty incompetent, just put back the boat along the dock with a front line and re do the exit again ^^ It took them so long to figure it ^^
wow was the wind bad or what ? looking at the flag not to much wind hahaha and people are right expensive boat bad crew haahah i have just stared sailing and i would put the 2 lines on and pull the boat in that situation. and yes just drive forward hahah
All he needed to do was to steam ahead on the forward spring and once alongside keep her in gear and the helm over to port slightly to keep her ass end in, then you can worry about putting the other mooring out. All the gear and know idea!
why was this not the very first comment? so many people with their fancy soluctions, mean while me and my steak knife are 10 minutes down the water haha
Because cutting the line is totally unnecessary. All they had to do was motor forward and the existing line would act as a spring line and move the boat to the dock. Reference: www.boatus.com/magazine/2013/February/docking-with-spring-lines.asp
Całkowicie niepoprawne. Cóz on mogł zrobic z tym 1 brestem???? Silnik odstawiony cyżby awaria? Ale i tak mozna było podac cume rufowa na poczatek potem dziobowa lub przeniesc brest i dociagnąc na sznurkach

I've docked there. It looks like Juan Carlos Marina in Valencia. The wind can be strong and the swell in the marina is an issue. In this case it seems to keep the boat from bouncing against the concrete dock.
If the owner of that boat reads this, all you had to do was motor forward with that midship line attached and you would have come in right along the dock. Just as pretty as you please.
that was painful to watch
It would be easier to just drive forward and use the line as a spring, it will bring the bota in and then just let it stay in gear which will keep it in place while putting on all the other lines.

Regards
Btw: Gorden Lamp was totally wrong with his analysis! 🤣👎
One line on a stern cleat, motor forward that will bring the bow closer to the dock where you can toss a second bow line.
No it won't. the line needs to be mid ship. Your "idea" will leave it sitting off to port at the bow.
@@carbidegrd1 He is already tied midship, it doesn't work in a strong blow. Stern cleat and power up with helm hard starboard. Basically prop torque and line tension vs wind.

if he drives forwards with that first line secured, the boat will simply come alongside. the guy on the dock is worthless too
The correct answer
Admiral Genius No, the boat wont come along side because wind is blowing starboard. He need to secure bowline, that is correct but then he has to do reverse to aproach stern.
you're right admiral GeniusForward is enough
Michael Randolf where did you get that bit of information? It was not in the description.
The bow thruster is running from the start of the video! If the "Transmission" had failed how did he motor away at the end??
simple drive forward with the first line attached - job done the boat wiil 100% pull int o key
That's perfectly right, John!
You would have thought the guy on the dock would have suggested that !
The man on the dock, hi just had a lovely laugh after they left. ;-)
Yep...more money than skill.
In theory that would have done the trick, but it does require some helmsmanship. The midship spring will impart rotation under forward throttle (clockwise in this case), so you'd have to helm to leeward. It's a balancing act that can end with the bow drifting downwind, or smacking into the dock.

Sell the thing and get a motorhome
So I have been there too. My first time I did not handle it well either, but learned. This is always a tricky operation.
Nice video, skipper with out skill, wrong tactic 👎
Thanks!
Just in case they have the nerve to watch themselves and read the comments... Google 'Docking with Spring lines'!!

Pathetic boathandling for a member of a big seafaring nation. He definatley don't know the ropes ;-) It really hurts to see that.
How about reversing against the spring line??????

Terrible manuover, poor skipper. Just shift to forward and apply some more rev.You're done
My bit: black stern line onto the last bollard, gear forward + bow truster. Such wide stern will turn her onto the pier and slack the white line.

Tie off a line forward and walk it back to the handler.
no idea howe to drive a boat. Pull forward with the spring

if it s to tied that means he made a wrong cleat knot. He seems pretty incompetent, just put back the boat along the dock with a front line and re do the exit again ^^ It took them so long to figure it ^^
People that don't understand physics shouldn't drive any boat.
wow was the wind bad or what ? looking at the flag not to much wind hahaha and people are right expensive boat bad crew haahah i have just stared sailing and i would put the 2 lines on and pull the boat in that situation. and yes just drive forward hahah
Full blown incompetence and lack of boat handling experience.
All he needed to do was to steam ahead on the forward spring and once alongside keep her in gear and the helm over to port slightly to keep her ass end in, then you can worry about putting the other mooring out.
All the gear and know idea!
Never have said a vidio suxz b 4 but this 1 suxz ballz hard fkn core.😭
the thing has an effing bow thruster....how is this even possible.....
Oh what a horrible mess... Had a chance many times to throw a line and walk it to the bow. No need for motor assist.
French were never sailors. Just drink bad red wine.
DONT bey a bigger boat then you can handle... amateur
The Captain should ride a bicycle not a boat !!!!!!
The shame of french yachting... Sorry i'm french!
some people should not drive , even sail..maybe just a bad day..
£250k yacht and he wont chop £20 of warp
exactly!
why was this not the very first comment? so many people with their fancy soluctions, mean while me and my steak knife are 10 minutes down the water haha
Because cutting the line is totally unnecessary. All they had to do was motor forward and the existing line would act as a spring line and move the boat to the dock. Reference: www.boatus.com/magazine/2013/February/docking-with-spring-lines.asp
Spot on Loanword Eggcorn !!
The black line belongs to the marina.
More money than brains. Guess none of them have ever heard of a spring line.
I think he took a couple turns on a clear and fetched her up and locked her down....
So wonder the beautiful sail boat was,nt crushed ......wow
Liked the video to learn from - negative comments don't help
Unglaublich das so einer Boot fährt und die Deckhand ist auch zu blöd
if only man had invented something to cut a rope....
WTF...Only one guy working at the gas dock??? That's pretty stupid.
most are unmanned in the uk
Całkowicie niepoprawne. Cóz on mogł zrobic z tym 1 brestem???? Silnik odstawiony cyżby awaria? Ale i tak mozna było podac cume rufowa na poczatek potem dziobowa lub przeniesc brest i dociagnąc na sznurkach
W końcu tak zrobił ale co on siedział tyle czasu pod kadłubem???? No i zbieranie sznuków z kei jest niepoprawne a nawet niebiebezpiczne. Manewr niezalizczony. PAŁA!
No i nie powinny to byźć szpringi ale cumy najpierw.
The most finely tanned scalp I've ever seen.

It is very simple to fix nose first, and after stern by revers.
I've docked there. It looks like Juan Carlos Marina in Valencia. The wind can be strong and the swell in the marina is an issue. In this case it seems to keep the boat from bouncing against the concrete dock.
That damned Russian yacht is everywhere.
