ART FROM OUR VOYAGE: https://www.bluefeatherfineart.com ? CHARLIE & GERRY CHANNEL: https://www.youtube.com/c/PirateParrots21 Dock lines are a crucial component in mooring your boat in your slip. Beit tying to a full length finger pier or against a stone seawall, how you tie up will determine how safely your boat remains there. In this video, Herby and Maddie go over the basics of entering and exiting a slip, as well as choosing various methods to tie up in the common slip setups. They discuss T-head, single slips, and double slips, as well as fixed and floating piers with respect to tidal variances. In a follow up video, we will discuss the materials that make it all possible and look into the rope choices that are available for dock lines themselves!
