Default Docking Situation Question #2

Jeff... shut up until you have a clue about what you're talking about.... so

....and quit quoting your reference manual... you sound like Ganzy.

Now that's just being wimpy. Unless you had a barge tight on the stern,
you should be able to spin your boat off just by backing the jib. With a
bit of coordination you could even use a spring line to pull the stern
forward along the dock so you'd need little if any clearance on the stern.

Tight and I would elect the method for lee dock conditions.
