I was checking out some videos for docking under sail and came across some interesting stuff I thought some of you might like to see.
Here is a pretty straight forward ASA docking into the wind video. Nothing fancy or unexpected, but a good place to start.
This one was very nicely done, but as one of the commenters pointed out, the big jump was unnecessary.
I watched several solo docking videos and they were pretty good, but not under sail power. I'm interested in a good video about docking solo under sail power.
An initial midship line should allow a solo sailor to dock and have time to get a bow or stern line on at leisure. Is it possible to get into a slip under sail or only when the wind is perfectly on the head and under 10 knots?
