Visitors’ mooring buoys are likely to become a lot more prevalent in the years ahead due to concerns about possible anchor damage to sensitive eco-systems, so it’s worth knowing how to pick one up even when cruising single-handed or with guests who aren’t yet up to crewing duties.

For those asking, the boat is a Windy 28 Ghibli.

Thanks! 😊

Thank you very much for these practical "how-to" videos. As a novice boater, I really appreciate these .

@mathisdetremmerie9309 3 года назад

I simply love the how-to series, really clearly explained! I have a question, will you guys make a single engined shaft-drive docking how to? I have asked this before but the response was a (also very good) video of a single engined stern-drive. And there is a big difference in backing in a stern-drive in comparison of a shaft-drive. I would love to see something like that explained by you guys!

Superb, I was only watching a vid the other day where a boat was on a bouy and I was wondering how to get on and off of one of those, brilliant timing MBY, thanks 👍🙂👏

@itdoesntmatterok Год назад

Thank you kindly, very helpful. Dock rental is quite pricey in Toronto so I may be looking into renting a mooring from a yacht club.

@ThatGuy-dj3qr 2 года назад

The challenge I find is that lacking a swim platform there is no easy place, bow or stern to reach to a morring ball. On my boat, the ball is one very long reach down (3 - 4 feet). I have a snap fitting that I can use to grab the ball by using a telescopic pole, but undoing that snap fitting is quite a feat.

If you are boating you shouldn't ask yourself "What would Jesus do", but rather "What would Jon Mendez do?" 🙂 I like these how-to videos, keep 'em coming! 👍

What about when you have high topsides, in a current with wind and waves? The conditions in the video are rare.

Far simpler than when I (in a hired boat small enough to not need a boat licence) tried something like this with all my kids and my wife helping. 🤣

@darthkek1953 3 года назад

Are you American? I ask because in the UK you can skipper "small" boats / yachts, etc., offshore without a licence or any form of qualification or test. By small I mean upto and including the Princess X95. Google that boat to be impressed just how lax our laws are. :-)

@PhilbyFavourites 3 года назад

@@darthkek1953 and those boats, in every size and shape, are currently being sold like hot cakes to the “new to boating” ready to explode onto the water at the merest hint of sunshine. Keep a sharp lookout if you are sharing a piece of the water with them... If any of those group of “new to...” are watching this I respectfully suggest a few days RYA approved training before plunging headlong into the skippers chair. Today’s modern vessel, though marvellously well specced, does not come equipped with automatic parking. For that read mooring or coming alongside!

Buoys here in the US are very different.

@invisiblerevolution 3 года назад

What's a mooring buoy???? Bringing that big "yellow" metal thing, so close to your boat, won't that damage it?

@aarem01 3 года назад

Isn’t that buoy scratching the sides of the boat? How can We avoid that?

@FlesHBoX 3 года назад

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. They have rectangular fenders that you could potentially use, but I would still worry about damaging the finish or gelcoat.

@jamessaward8253 3 года назад

Once the bow line has been threaded a gentle push off the bouy with your foot or boat hook will give you some distance. The wind and or tide will do the rest as you should be downwind.

@timowen8492 2 года назад

If you have a problem docking in that calm seas then you probably shouldn’t be on a boat. Backing in to a mooring when it’s blowing would be disasterous
