No one answered this so I will.
One common problem is people set the hook and don't pay out line fast enough. If the boat stops moving, the rudder stops working. That is the short answer. Carrying on from here, you would of course hug the windward side of your intended berth and try to get a line to the quay on the windward side. If you are lucky you can use prop walk to keep you to windward--only if the wind is coming over your port side. Another possibility is to anchor and warp yourself in. wrote: What is the most important thing to remember after anchoring when backing down into a Med Mooring. [Assume a cross wind, and single screw Right Hand Prop] I'm not looking for a complicated answer, but I'll give 2 points for a full description which includes the most important point or 1 point for a short answer defining this one item I'm looking for that many capable skippers forget. |
