I have found that it's easier to grab a mooring ball by backing up to
it, with someone standing on the swim platform.

And what then?
Drag it up to the bow?
How do you manage to hold the boat against a decent breeze, especially
when it turns beam on to the breeze?

You're not very bright, are you? You tie a line to your bow cleat,
and bring the other end back to the swim platform. The preson on the
swim platform ties that end onto the mooring ball. Then he goes up to
the bow and pulls the boat in.





Pathetic Earthlings! No one can save you now!
