Bull****. You can park your boat any way that's convenient. As he said,
it can make it easier to board and bring on supplies. You give up some
privacy, but that's about the only disadvantage.

Basically, what you're saying is that you're incapable of backing a boat in
a narrow area. Bwahaahaaaaa.... YOU CONTINUE TO LOSE. Perhaps you should
think about shutting up for a while. Maybe you'll learn something.

Yeah.. okay... but I don't see you whining about it being difficult to
"back" your vessel out of your slip if needed do I!!??

If I'm by myself and the wind is against me... I'll rope my boat out and
set the bow to the wind... then just jump in and whip the line off the
bollard or cleat as I put the engine into gear.

When I didn't have an engine... I rowed the damn thing out towing it with
my punt! I clenched the bowline in my teeth!!!..... and it's a 6 ton
full keel 30 footer!!!

Of course anyone with a Hunter is retarded anyway! Crap.. you could tow
that thing with a pedal boat! Load crew after you back from the slip???

Actually ... backing in is much more difficult with a sailboat than
backing out.

Well it is with a Crab Crusher like mine anyway......

I don't personally like being stern to a dock on the finger pier. Rubber
neckers and all plus there is no advantage. If you can sail out by backing
in then okay... but if you motor out after backing in ... what's the
point? It's 40 feet of distance max! Most likely it's only 20 feet of
reverse. You can man handle even a 40 footer that distance by yourself. If
the dock requires motoring out I load everyone and everything prior to
slipping the dock lines.... then I shove her to the end of the slip....
line her up... step aboard... and put it in gear.

Good Grief... it's not rocket science! This isn't the QE2... it's a 30 ft
sailboat... they have dinghies that big.

I don't have a full length finger pier. It's just plain easier for
boarding, loading/unloading. Besides, in the Summer I sleep naked with
the hatch open, so it's more fun being stern in.
