03:51

Being a “Sailing Academy”, you should know how to tie a proper cleat hitch. Especially in a demonstration video. That there at 3:23 is a disaster waiting to happen.

It is ridiculous to have to have at least seven fenders (ones that I could see) on board a 41 foot boat. Where do you store those things … go to a proper marina. That one sucks …

Very lovely and realistically believed.

As @Memostly mentioned the quoted range is 5.3m not 5.6m. But even taking that into account, the estimated tidal speed (~3.1 knots) is higher than the spring tidal stream (2.8 knots). This is unexpected, no?

Best explanation I saw up to now.

i Have a question how do you exact plot in here 1:17 cause i know you use the compass but how you get the exact latitude and longitude ?

Thank you very much. Just come out of the exact same spot. Worked a treat.

Thanks a lot!!! GREAT HELP! Happy sailing

Very smoothly done. Using an off-side slip-line is a technique I've used many times on a Dutch barge and various yachts. Clear, to-the-point video with no procrastination. Just 2 questions:- 1) Why would you not initiate the turn (in this instance, and in "Spronging 180") with a back-spring from the port quarter? - IMHO it simplifies the fendering, and in some cases eliminates the need for it. 2) What video editing software are you using? - I want it! Thanks.

Best simple explanation! Thank you so much!

Perfect, thank you.

Not concise enough, images dont relate to what youre explaining, the almanac for example gives us the information to see the differences, the 12 hr tides, e.g 0000- 0600, mhws, mlws, needs more detail! with every step for visual learners

so much easier to understand and in line with certain questions that the RYA ask, watched many with so much confusion and vague with info, thank you.

How did you get 14:26 tho?

Short & to the point !

People - if it goes too fast, play it slowly....

Wooow, very clearly explained, thanks sir

I’ve been in there a few times. I’ll always remember the magnificent public toilets.

My Catalina 30 TR is in a very similar situation. This the best instructional video I've seen. I can't wait to get to the marina in the morning and execute this maneuver. Thanks so much.

Waste of time. Goes too fast to read.

Not good you need to use a pointer or folks get confused

Less likes than other similar videos from other channels but the clearest one! Thank you very much

Thanks

Made a bit of a meal of it 😊

Why not reverse using prop wash, seems there was not much wind ?

Clear as Southampton mud

Maths is simple thanks, but no real explanation as to why this is important or interesting.

Well vedio

Seriously have a word with yourself

Perfect

Clear and concise. Thank you

Gps fix

Thank you so much. How about a secondary port correction for say 1000 - a time that is between 0600 and 1200? Do you interpolate with a scale from -24 mins to -48 mins instead?

Thank you! Good video, good trick for a new y.. like me😅

Thank you sir, But... When do we meet the pecked curve?! And when do we meet the solid curve?! And how do we make the interpolation of it?

Moin 03.35 Eine Klampe richtig belegen sollte man aber noch mal üben. Der Rest ist ein perfektes und gelungenes Manöver

Works beautifully. A crowd of sceptical Frenchmen who clearly thought it wouldn’t work gathered to watch us, but it was a pretty easy way to get out of a tight spot

Thank you.

Huge thank you for these videos…. Just brilliant revision for me and SO helpful!

Clear explanation but doesn't show how did u find tidal stream n others....

Love your videos but this on is way to fast. Cheers, Tony

And Bob’s your Uncle Mate

Informative and concise.

Thanks Paul.

The awful RYA skipper manual doesn't even mention variation when plotting the compass readings. Thanks for informing us.

Sproining?

How did you make the last step?? Why did you make a line until you reack 0.5 ???

now... do it alone..

I find this technique really good at Largs refuelling pontoon which can be a place of drama observing some manoeuvres. I prefer it to springing because there is no room to go forwards if one has gone in starboard side to. It adds a degree of control if the conditions allow. Thanks for the video, a good reminder.
