Downside to this, of course, is
that it is then tougher to get off the dock unless the wind changes. By
coming in upwind to the other side of the dock, (when that option is
available) it is a lot easier to clear the dock on departure since,
(unless it changes), the wind will help blow you clear of nearby boats
until you have sufficient room to manuever.
===============================================
My solution to getting off docks is to motor forward against a spring
line with the helm hardover towards the dock. The propwash will kick
the stern out, at which point you can clear the spring line and
reverse out to open water. Works for me.
