PREPARING YOUR LINES: Singlehanded Docking Stern To with Lazy Lines When docking your aim is to reduce the amount of time it takes to get your control line on . Here in video 5 Nick gives great practical tips to make it easier on both you and the person on the dock. Video 5 in Nicks step by step process getting set up and ready for Singlehanded Docking Stern To with Lazy Lines. =========================== TRANSCRIPT I didn't explain it. Just before we do this instead of having the whole line coiled to throw to the guy on the dock. Depending on the system on the dock. It could be a bollard or a ring. Quite often in the marinas like today it's a ring. So if you throw him the whole line, he's got to then find the end, untangle what you threw him, feed it through the ring and get it back to you. What you want to do when you're docking on your own or at any time is to reduce the amount of time it takes to get your control line on. So by throwing him just a manageable amount of line there he can get the end and feed it through and the slack will run out nice and easy =========================== Filmed and Edited by Mahina Hathaway and Nick Hathaway, 45 Degrees Sailing Looking to sail in Croatia?

Six things worth building a British Virgin Islands charter week around, counted down from six to one. 6. The Soggy Dollar Bar on Jost Van Dyke — a Caribbean icon since the 1970s, named for the way guests arrive: anchor offshore, swim in, and your dollars come out soaked. Foxy's, in the next bay east, has been a cornerstone of BVI yachting since 1968. 5. The underwater world. The RMS Rhone, an 1867 shipwreck off Salt Island, and the Kodiak Queen, a WWII vessel turned artificial reef and art installation near Virgin Gorda — plus the pinnacles and swim-throughs at The Indians. 4. A treasure hunt on Norman Island, believed to have inspired Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island, and once a real stash spot for stolen treasure. It's about an hour south of Nanny Cay on Tortola. 3. A wellness charter — daily yoga on deck, sunset yoga on the beach, meditation, therapeutic massages and spa treatments, for anyone looking to reset from a demanding routine. 2. The Willy T, the floating pirate bar built on a decommissioned tanker that has served thirsty sailors since 1989. It doesn't close until the party ends. 1. A holiday at sea. More and more of our clients are choosing Thanksgiving, Christmas or New Year in the BVI — crews learn your family traditions, Santa has been known to make a surprise stop, and Trellis Bay lights up with Aragorn's fireballs on New Year's Eve.

#sailinglife #marriagesavers #headset #hollyland #shorts #marineheadset #outdoorlife #walkietalkies #boatlife #Hollylandtech #communication #fijiisland #fijiwater #shorts Recently we went to the aid of a sailboat that had hit a reef in Fiji because the spotter didn't warn the helm in time about the coral reef up ahead. Fast communication between the spotter and helm is essential to navigate the dubiously chartered coral reefs and bommie fields of Fiji and we've often envied crew on other boats who manage to do this without shouting at eachother down the length of the boat! Someone at @hollylandtech obviously noticed our lack of effective communication and sent us some cool Solidcom C1 Pro headsets to try out.. and boy have they made a difference We turn down 90% of free products offered for us by brands to 'try out' because.. well, we know we just won't use them, but these headsets have been an absolute Godsend, so thanks to the guys at @Hollylandtech
