REVERSING INTO A BERTH: Singlehanded Docking Stern To with Lazy Lines Watch as Nick, step by step reverses into a berth. This is video 8 in Nicks step by step singlehanded Docking To/With Lazy Lines =========================== Watch the full training video here - https://youtu.be/-OPs960oR88 =========================== Transcript As we approach the dock here I want to get quite close. Now I'm using forward just to stop us from getting back onto the dock itself. As soon as I've lost my forward reverse momentum I stop. If you can throw the line to him like that over his arm then it's not going to hit him in the face. Oh we'll take it back it's okay. Oh okay okay. So you'll get this as well. There's often you will um either get someone who's going to pass the line back to you or he's just going to hitch it there so that you don't have to deal with it straight away. Now if it was a really windy day or if I was getting blown away right now I would drive my boat against that Stern line or control line. So that I had control and was not drifting closer to the dock. =========================== Filmed and Edited by Mahina Hathaway and Nick Hathaway, 45 Degrees Sailing Looking to sail in Croatia?

Set Sail on Serenity: A Catamaran Adventure Through Croatia's Paradise Croatia, a jewel nestled in the Adriatic Sea, beckons with its turquoise waters, ancient cities, and endless charm. But what if you could experience it all at your own pace, the rhythm of the waves your only guide? Enter the magic of catamaran sailing – a luxurious and liberating way to explore Croatia's hidden coves and vibrant coastline. Why Catamaran? Catamarans, with their twin hulls, offer unparalleled stability and spacious decks. Imagine waking up to a sunrise over a calm bay, the gentle rocking of the boat your lullaby. Picture yourself lounging on the expansive nets, sun-kissed and carefree, as the crystal-clear water beckons for a swim. Catamarans provide ample space for relaxation, while also allowing you to navigate shallow bays inaccessible to larger yachts. Croatia's Alluring Islands Await Croatia boasts over 1,200 islands, each with its own unique personality. Your catamaran adventure can be completely customized, allowing you to island-hop at your leisure. Explore the bustling port town of Hvar, known for its nightlife and elegant harbor. Immerse yourself in history at Korčula, a medieval town said to be the birthplace of Marco Polo. Discover the serenity of Vis, a haven for nature lovers with hidden beaches and secluded coves. Beyond the Islands: Cultural Gems and Culinary Delights Croatia's mainland is equally captivating. Sail into Split, a vibrant city boasting a UNESCO-protected Diocletian's Palace at its heart. Dubrovnik, the "Pearl of the Adriatic," will mesmerize you with its ancient walls and charming squares. As you explore each port, indulge in Croatia's rich culinary scene. Savor fresh seafood, sip on local wines, and savor the flavors of the Mediterranean.

We had a break in the weather, so we decided to head off to Long Island. Although we had originally planned to head to the Ragged Islands, it's perhaps too early in the winter season to do so. The periodicity of the weather events down here is every week or so and the wind coming next Monday would have been a challenge in the Ragged Islands. There's so few anchorages with protection from winds out of the West. Winds were light and variable. We were mostly on a broad reach or run all day. We used every sail. Once we made the turn to starboard back to the Bahamas Bank, we dropped the main, the gennaker and got out the Oxley Levante Parasail. Love that sail. It's so fun to fly. So, we'll stay here for a bit and head back to George Town, Bahamas and wait out the next blow. Hopefully we can make it over to Dean's Blue Hole, but we'll have to rent a car for the day.
