No...I think you're doing most everything right.


I'm not so concerned with landing on the dock, as I am with people
falling between the boat and the dock. Then, the boat closes with the
dock, and the person is a human fender... bad news really.


Ah, good.

I will remember though to add to my SOP commands, when conditions are
creating closure with dock as opposed to a struggle to get close, "Don't
step off until we touch."

It's the thing you need a lert for in order to avoid having to use it.
