For all who say that this maneuver was too risky: The Greek ferry system is one of Europe's most iterated. Many ports are small, most harbors are surrounded by hills, which change the general direction of winds. Winter winds can be very strong, but also in summer in the central Aegean there is a nearly constant strong wind of Bf 4-8 (the Meltemi). Yet the Greek ferry system is one of the safest in the world. Kudos to Greek Ferry Captains ! In this case (a relatively big harbor in tranquil weather) the weathered master of this vessel executed a bold maneuver, but one which was well within his skills. Bravo !

This is the main Maria on Siros, Greece. A beautyful town and neat place. BUT (read on): I was in this marina with my sailboat - once and never again because of those morons. They drive like Jackasses into the harbor with 10kn or more - then full bow thrusters and full reverse, which creates around 1,5 to 2m high waves in the maria. I never went offboard to protect my ship. Other ships were pushed into the kaiwall. The problem is - you have to go back and anchor at around 15m depth. So you have a shit load of chain out that you can't pull it tight enought if one of those iditos does his stunt there... Going sideways to the kai is suicide. The marina is free of charge and you get even free water and electricity to make it more attractive - but even this does not help... I ended up leaving the marina at evening and anchoring at the small island you can see at the beginning of the vid to get at least some sleep. Next day I went back just for 30 mins to put my repaired sail back on and left as quickly as I could. This has nothing to do with "like a boss" .. more "like a idiot". Go to this marina and you can watch really poor seamanship shown by the profis - not more. Fun fact: This marina is hated by nearly every sailor I've met in greece because of those stupid ferry "captains".

You are a moron that you think the entire harbor should belong to your shitty sailboat. These islands get thousands of tourists every day and ferries need to get in and out fast because they also serve other islands in a row. Greek captains were and still are the best in the planet. Maneuvering a ferry so quick is really hard to do and no other captains except Greeks can do such thing.

That hot-shot Captain will do that every day for years and then , just when he's about to throw his ship into that starboard turn as he comes through the pier heads his steering gear will fail, it will fail to neutral and his ship will not even slow by half a knot before coming to grief buried bridge deep in the port side of a product carrier, seconds later there will be a bright glow and lots of heat and light and a front page headline around the world.

Captains ferry in local area usually are very familiar with their vessel area etc, of course their skill are improved by hundred ..of manvrs. The problem is the schedule tide and capt (in videoclip you can hear the conversation about ropes,gangway). The entrance speed was high ( was ok for cpt, if was wind for sure not was same mauvr.) My opinion unnecessary to save 15-20 min (the second part of manuvr was normal).
