How i leave the dock solo in a crosswind using a springline 

Love the content! Very useful information for solo handling!

I'm using a much longer (windward) stern line to go out of the dock. This gives me more control. After leaving your box, the bow will swing to port side (in your case). You can try (like you did) to kick your bow against the wind. But you have two other options: 1. Make a 270° turn over port side using the existing rotation. 2. Make a nearly 90° turn to port and reverse out. There is no need to leave in forward gear. Both options are slowing down the actions on board.

If you would use a camera at the bow looking aft it would make the videos much more useful.

where's your hat? Looks chilly🥶

Go even slower on your throttle, just get the boat moving in the right directions is enough.

Don't give up your day job please!
