Been reading these responses and will add my experience to the discussion. I have a C&C 26, which is lighter than most of the boats mentioned in this thread so it doesn't carry as far, which makes my situation a bit easier. My slip faces north at a marina in Miami, FL and we usually have an ENE wi

Stus-List Docking seamanship

Dennis:  I spent 20 years on a mooring so I could come and go single handed without any stress associated with docking and/or leaving a slip. Last year, a slip at my club became available similar to yours in Pensacolabow in, starboard side finger pier with a Nonsuch 36 as my port neighbor.

Re: Stus-List Docking seamanship

Learned this at a talk at the Annapolis boat show. I have occasionally and seen others use this docking method – my slip has pilings and very short finger pier. A line at least 2 boat lengths and a long finger pier. Attached to the mid-ship cleat, the line is led outside the lifelines to the crew/

Yes. One on the outboard end, one mid-pier and one at the bow. The outboard one ends up just aft of the secondary winch when Touche' is docked properly. This is the cleat the spring line is put on when we're docking. Forgot to mention, it's a floating pier so the finger pier is well below the d
