Peter as always a pleasure to watch and listen to your teaching. The problem is no one ever docked a boat with no wind, no current, and enough deck and dock hands to handle the lines. But that is what boating is all about isn't it? Keep it up, spring is almost here and cruising season is right around the corner. Cheers
Multiple decades ago my parents bought me an RC speed boat. about 15 years ago we found it in the basement and I played with it for a summer as an adult. I came up with the idea to buy a RC tugboat to retrieve it it when the battery died and never played with the speed boat again. The speed boat ran 15min on a fresh charged battery, the tugboat ran 6 hours. So here's a 30 something "adult" laying on a yoga mat on our dock in our pond playing with an RC tugboat for 5-6 hours every weekend , giggling like a child while maneuvering it around the posts, pushing our 8ft aluminum dingy, chasing ducks. I learned so much about different rudder designs since I could just take a grub screw out and replace the entire rudder in 12 seconds. I remember trying to maneuver in reverse, the spinning of the prop in reverse will walk the boat in one direction like a paddle wheel. i even bought a reverse pitch prop to see if it would walk the other direction and it did... it was fascinating to me.
Yep docking..be ready to spring into action..great tutorial...now that you've started a model..might as well finish it..should make a great condiment dispenser for the table...cheers Peter..
Nice overview of boat handling for single screw. I actually enjoy my single screw, it turns every docking situation into a challenge. I do use spring lines a great deal too! Thanks!!
Excellent! Excellent boat handling intro! As a long time viewer I also love that you did it with a ship shape that you cut and sanded. Only needed some Epifanes to finish it off good’n proper! ~Cheers, Rob
Fantastic explanation, it was the best that I have seen. So much better than a real boat demo, you could see everything. If you do something like this again, please add a rider indicator to your model boat.
Some of the funniest boating memories I have come from hanging out at the piers and just watching. Usual dialog goes something like: "Ready Eddie?" "Let it happen captain!" When will Spring get here?
Even though I’ve got my own boat and use all your techniques Peter, I really, really enjoyed the way you explained it. You are definitely a great teacher. I am really looking forward to getting back out on mine in the Spring. 👍😂🇬🇧🔧
Hi, Enjoyed your docking lesson. I owned a wooden 28ft CristCraf fishing boat. When I left the dock, I had to backup. With a single screw the boat tended to steer to the left……..an additional dock was to my left……as the boat drifted toward that darn dock, I’d put the throttle on forward. If I gave it too much thrust, there was always a delayed coarse change which would manifest itself as a straight line toward the houseboats docked next to my slip to my right………Scary. Docking bow first wasn’t too bad. I wrote to you about my perfect docking experience when the fuel lie broke, filling the bilge with gas,,,,,,,I came in fast slapped it in reverse….damn thing stopped on a dime…..The wife was quite impressed. Heavy old lappestaked construction fishing boats are indeed difficult to pilot. Needless to say, Ino longer have the beast,,,,,docking fees went though the roof. Enjoy your videos and your knowledge of boating. Would enjoy a video of you playing guitar for your followers. Regards from Texas, Les
Nice discussion Peter. A couple of comments. First, sailboats. Sailboats with fin keels and spade rudders or rudders on a skeg steer well both in forward and reverse. On the other hand, sailboats with full keels and attached rudders don't steer well at all in reverse until you get moving pretty fast. My Allied 36 for example pretty much goes where it wants in reverse until I get to about 3 knots. Also, because of the relatively larger rudders on sailboats, they steer quite well going forward with the engine in neutral. That is in contrast to a powerboat with a small rudder that has to be moving right along to steer in forward with the engine in neutral. Docking is always fun. Tortuga has a good deal of prop walk which I take advantage of. I generally come into the dock at quite an angle and use prop walk in reverse to pull the stern in. In my slip, I leave my aft spring line on the dock. Since I have a port side helm and can easily reach the dock from the helm, I come into the dock and stop, pick up the aft spring and drop the loop at the end over my midships cleat. Then I put the helm hard over to starboard and put the boat back in gear. The boat will come along side by itself so I can get off and tie up the rest of the way. Locally, wind is almost always a consideration and can make things a bit interesting. I am also in a slip with a boat 5' to starboard which is a big factor in coming in or leaving.
Some day maybe I will type out the 4 days of moving a friends 104' wooden power boat from long beach to marina del Rey to channel islands marina. When I got back. My mom was at my apartment. Took about 45 minutes to tell her about it. She got up at the end and said. You sure spin a good yarn. And walked away. Maybe I should write a book about it. The 6-71s used early twin disc transmissions with push button air shifters. Huge tip. If you have the air compressor line for the shifter buttons , pressure gauge on the console, and the supply line to the air horn. Put a tee and a valve on the break out of the tee. Run that to a scuba tank connector. So if you loose the air compressor while shifting to maneuver or dock. You can crack the scuba bottle for a second while watching the pressure gauge to keep air pressure up for shifting. I helped him with that boat for 22 years. I even bogarted a dozen coasties from going on board to do a safety inspection after almost clipping the bows of their 41 and 82 at channel islands harbor. 10 feet is a miss right. Understand our boat was 22 feet longer than their 82. According to my gps and the tachometers we could do 18 knots at 1700 rpm with the 32x32, 3 blade props.
Watching your docking tutorial really brought back ancient memories of sailing. In the case of sail boats, I always referred to CE (centre of effort) and CLR (centre of lateral resistance), but you know, po-tay-toe / po-tah-to. The ancient memories ties in perfectly with Amnesiac, one of my favourites, too.
Thank-you for the instruction. I like the simplicity (visual aid), yet informative, with a bit of humor. ;-) I've had an idea, instead of a separate warning light the gauge would torn red (blink?). I tried to find a "spring" poem for boatmen or sailors, but what I found, at a glance looked to depressing so I don't know if just having the word "spring" would count?
I first tried this with my sailboat 38ft Pearson and then with 30ft Owens. While pulling into dock I've been putting into neutral and the steering has been much more responsive. People are often tense when docking and the key is take your time, its not a race. I see to often people flying in to fast (coming in hot). Slow and easy is the best advice anyone can give. Cheers 🍻
Great teaching segment thanks disappointed you didn't make the appropriate engine noises when in forward and reverse. he he. Spring has sprung so it must be pancake day , hurray!
GREAT EPISODE! learned a good deal about the importance of knowing your boat. SPRING has sprung here on the East coast. We went from 23 to 60 in a matter of hours and had snow the following day. Gotta keep an eye on the marina with the wind! Double up those spring lines!
on the norfolk broads spring lines are a must at some places due to the tidal rise and fall, generally when I am single handing my bow and stern mooring lines are brought back to just outside the cockpit, I also have a mooring cleat just by the cockpit, when mooring I pass the bow rope inside the centre cleat and step off the boat with the bow line and the stern line, as the bow line is now coming from the centre cleat, that gets quickly tied off, then i can deal with the stern line, once thats in place its back to the line off the centre cleat and that gets untied unhooked from the centre and then tied off from the bow. very few places on the broads can you reach to loop a line around a post from the cockpit, unless approaching at low tide where in places the quay heading can be above roof height. I also keep a spare rope in the cockpit that can be quicly looped around the centre cleat in case i havent remembered to bring the bow lines to the cockpit. as I say mostly this is because I am solo when mooring, that said i have on one occasion got the wind and tide totally wrong and had to abandon the bow rope and leap for the bow of the boat to get back on the helm to get it back under control (that was when there were no posts or rings and I had to put in some rhond anchors before I could tie up, a simple case of not enough hands and wind and tide making things worse. there is nothing worse than having to rush a mooring.
Great video Peter When given the opportunity to take over steering a friend’s narrow boat I suddenly realised that the cross wind could push the boat towards other boats. Fortunately to avoid embarrassment and a nasty collision i realised I had to spring into action and Deflect the point of contact with my foot 😬 🙈
Hi Peter. I live in the south where spring is already beginning too. I remember spring as the most beautiful part of the year with verdant greens and vibrant reds and yellows. Far from the dismal greys and browns of winter. I hope you enjoy yours and look forward to watching your channel as you take us with you on your travels. Good day and God bless.
Good explanation of docking and leaving. If I had watched first, I might have saved a $2000 USD repair of my 25’ Bayliner on the Fraser river in BC!!! I turned my stern into the dock and got caught by the current.
I've docked my families boat(s) for years, and I've never thought of explaining it this way. Granted, the boat I've docked is significantly smaller than yours (and the boats have been an O and and I/O). It's raining all week in Portland this coming week...so spring is here!
Very well explained visually. Likely more understandable than my efforts to instruct for some on the boat. I will let them watch you as a primer. Thanks. The complicated spring line single hand release maneuvers I have done. Like to practice normally using a spare sheet as length is required. The geese believe it is Spring. Headed your way despite the cold snap.
I always tried to use a breastline for mooring just for the reasons you stated. Moored, besides a bow and stern lines, I had spring lines, running fore and aft, from my breastline mooring cleat.
I write a little ditty, Where I hope to be witty, To spring for a shirt, Without being curt. Alack and alas, My effort’s so crass, No shirt have I got, Boo hoo, that’s my lot !
Well done on the training episode! We of old wood and no thruster have learned such skills: it would be wonderful if others in the boating world might too. 😆 Glad you liked the valve.
That was very well done, Peter. I was fortunate enough to be an Able Seaman on a steam tanker with a master shiphandler as captain. He took pains to teach boathandling to his quartermasters and new 3rd mates. We used graham crackers for advance&transfer lessons instead of a pretty mahogany board, though.
Peter. SPRING has sprung. No not really. It’s still February. The application of the physics of boat handling was refreshing. Really liked that. Is it possible to buy a t shirt, since my luck is not that good. Stay safe.
Be interesting to see if it's possible to install a small 'Reversing Rudder' into the skeg ahead of the prop. It would be operated by a hand lever and only moved from the 'Dead Ahead' position when running in reverse. Pivoting on the leading edge, it would deflect enough of the prop wash to swing the aft end much more effectively than the 'Aft' rudder...
The model works great for these demos, and I would suggest still using it if you make a more extensive version of this while demoing with a full size boat. Really highlights the play of force vectors nicely.
Well Peter. SPRING has sprung. No not really. It’s still February. The application of the physics of boat handling was refreshing. Nicely explained. Is it possible to buy a TWG t shirt, since my luck is not so good. Be safe. It’s cold here in Sacramento
Victoria looks lovely right now but I'm sure that Spring will be even nicer. Love your channel.
This was a fun change of pace and very informative. The fan demonstration was brilliant!
Peter as always a pleasure to watch and listen to your teaching. The problem is no one ever docked a boat with no wind, no current, and enough deck and dock hands to handle the lines. But that is what boating is all about isn't it? Keep it up, spring is almost here and cruising season is right around the corner. Cheers
Hey Peter thanks the excellent refresher on docking. Who’s ready for Spring.
Multiple decades ago my parents bought me an RC speed boat. about 15 years ago we found it in the basement and I played with it for a summer as an adult. I came up with the idea to buy a RC tugboat to retrieve it it when the battery died and never played with the speed boat again. The speed boat ran 15min on a fresh charged battery, the tugboat ran 6 hours. So here's a 30 something "adult" laying on a yoga mat on our dock in our pond playing with an RC tugboat for 5-6 hours every weekend , giggling like a child while maneuvering it around the posts, pushing our 8ft aluminum dingy, chasing ducks. I learned so much about different rudder designs since I could just take a grub screw out and replace the entire rudder in 12 seconds. I remember trying to maneuver in reverse, the spinning of the prop in reverse will walk the boat in one direction like a paddle wheel. i even bought a reverse pitch prop to see if it would walk the other direction and it did... it was fascinating to me.
Thanks again for haveimg us aboard , glad you enjoyed the beer!
From Brian and Amanda
Stay healthy and we'll see you next week.
Ahhhh, spring. I am so sick of winter. I can’t wait for spring to sprung……spring to spring……I can’t wait for it to warm up.
Yep docking..be ready to spring into action..great tutorial...now that you've started a model..might as well finish it..should make a great condiment dispenser for the table...cheers Peter..
Yes, Spring is on the way. I learn something from every episode. Thanks.
Always good to cover the basics. Very nice demonstration video. "No matter how long the winter, spring is sure to follow". ~Proverb
That you for the “spring” line tutorial. Best wishes
Nice overview of boat handling for single screw. I actually enjoy my single screw, it turns every docking situation into a challenge. I do use spring lines a great deal too!
Thanks!!
Great docking lesson. Learned new usage of spring lines!
Spring is in the air!
Love watching videos on subjects totally unknown to me
Thanks for the blue and yellow at the start.
Excellent! Excellent boat handling intro! As a long time viewer I also love that you did it with a ship shape that you cut and sanded. Only needed some Epifanes to finish it off good’n proper! ~Cheers, Rob
20:18 🤗Nice background during beer of the week segment
Very nice tutorial on maneuvering a single engine power boat. Your use of spring lines to assist in tight quarters is great.
Spring ahead, Fall back
I chose YOU to watch FIRST over Leo...kudos! Greetings from SE Alaska!
I can tell you are ready to spring into spring!
Funny idea to spring a boating lesson on your viewers, spring lines and all … right at the early beginning of spring. ;)
Very well done as usual, Peter! Thanks
Well the spring in your step was obvious with a very nice spring like day. We are still covered in snow here in Wisconsin but I enjoyed the tutorial.
Fantastic explanation, it was the best that I have seen. So much better than a real boat demo, you could see everything. If you do something like this again, please add a rider indicator to your model boat.
My alltime favourite beer! Very HOPPY! CHEERS!!!
Spring is about to burst forth here. May your springs, as in lines, always hold!!
Very educational episode, thanks it was very informative! You seem to have a spring in your step with the nicer weather x
A little Monte Python there? Great job. Single screw is a bit more difficult. It gets done anyway. And you do it well.
Some of the funniest boating memories I have come from hanging out at the piers and just watching. Usual dialog goes something like: "Ready Eddie?" "Let it happen captain!" When will Spring get here?
I can’t wait for spring to arrive.
Great episode! Now I’m ready for spring steaming!
And, it's snowing again... so much for Spring. Anyway, thank you for a useful lesson on docking.
I don’t even own a boat. I sure do like watching this one! Cheers🍻
You are a good teacher😀
Awesome training session! Docking and undocking are the two, for most people, being the most high tension on normal operations. 👌⛵️🍻 Cheers!
Spring semester at the MV Geordie marine academy is now in session
A drone version would be awesome...and a second motor...lol
spring, spring. here in southern manitoba we are expecting more snow next week and the flood forecast is looking bad. get me out of here soon
Great stuff Peter. More of that please
Even though I’ve got my own boat and use all your techniques Peter, I really, really enjoyed the way you explained it. You are definitely a great teacher. I am really looking forward to getting back out on mine in the Spring. 👍😂🇬🇧🔧
I can’t wait to spring into Spring! Minnesota has been pretty cold🥶
Well done!
I enjoyed it.

Funnily enough tidal flow can make docking easier if you make it work for you.
Hello Peter from s/v Music ll at the Galapagos Islands great video cheers my friend
We thought spring had arrived, but it is snowing here in Port Alberni...drat.
😱Was that Sepelli Mahogany?? Nice that you found something to do with the stainless bus bars.. It was good of your visitors to "spring" for the beers

Spring is coming John Snow
It will be spring soon Peter, 30 foot boat with a 28" 4 blade prop walks a treat when I go astern, shes even harsher in shallow water
Hi Peter. I live in the south where spring is already beginning too. I remember spring as the most beautiful part of the year with verdant greens and vibrant reds and yellows. Far from the dismal greys and browns of winter. I hope you enjoy yours and look forward to watching your channel as you take us with you on your travels. Good day and God bless.
Hey Peter here in Ontario it’s extremely cold and there’s a lot of snow, I’m really looking forward for SPRING.

It's raining all week in Portland this coming week...so spring is here!
I know it sounds weird but with my twin diesels I often miss not having to master those techniques like SPRING lines and prop walk
Thrilling 😱 Thanks for Sharing Cheers brother 🍻
Perfect lesson. : )

Where I hope to be witty,
To spring for a shirt,
Without being curt.
Alack and alas,
My effort’s so crass,
No shirt have I got,
Boo hoo, that’s my lot !
Well done on the training episode! We of old wood and no thruster have learned such skills: it would be wonderful if others in the boating world might too. 😆 Glad you liked the valve.
Great explanation on docking ! Thx
Don't think I've tried the very last un-docking maneuver,,, something I must try just in the 'wake' of next spring splash.
That was very well done, Peter. I was fortunate enough to be an Able Seaman on a steam tanker with a master shiphandler as captain. He took pains to teach boathandling to his quartermasters and new 3rd mates. We used graham crackers for advance&transfer lessons instead of a pretty mahogany board, though.
Have you too just come from Robert Fripp's channel perchance?
I was only just listening to him play a chord from that very tune.
Looking forward to the upcoming “spring” projects on MV Geordie!
Peter. SPRING has sprung. No not really. It’s still February. The application of the physics of boat handling was refreshing. Really liked that. Is it possible to buy a t shirt, since my luck is not that good. Stay safe.
Your videos are so informative! Makes me want to get into the water with my boat (which is still very much a resto project, but maybe by Spring!)
You forgot rule number 1 When in doubt throttle it out. LOL!
Be interesting to see if it's possible to install a small 'Reversing Rudder' into the skeg ahead of the prop. It would be operated by a hand lever and only moved from the 'Dead Ahead' position when running in reverse.

Hey Pete I hope you didn’t blow a stair tread making the demo boat. 😳😳
The old guy who taught me used to say go slow look like a pro go fast look like an a$$
Well Peter. SPRING has sprung. No not really. It’s still February. The application of the physics of boat handling was refreshing. Nicely explained. Is it possible to buy a TWG t shirt, since my luck is not so good. Be safe. It’s cold here in Sacramento
YMMV.. is that Sea miles or Land miles ?
You might look up transverse thrust too , especially being a fixed blade and single shaft.
Hello, where did you get that little electric fan?
What do you do with a sick boat?
Take it to the doc.
-I think my boats going to sink
- How do you know that?
- This spring I started a leak diet.
Any such ah thing as ah Double Spring Line?
lol teeny tiny bowlines
Love the Ukraine flag Peter,here’s hoping for peace.
How to dock a boat...ur late again coming out of ur paycheck.
