Next one in a lot more windy conditions... Makes for more drama, you know, for the video... ☺

Good vid ya'll, that's something you never see on any other channel.

A Pro! Thats how you do it. Not a panic drill!

Great vid and great docking! My gf doesn’t want to try to dock our 37 footer, does Isabelle try sometimes? I find docking stressful sometimes but satisfying. Btw, when I dock I have a squealing nervous dog yelping in fear trying to jump off the boat. Your beeping is nothing compared to my dog.

Central cockpit is not for singlehanders like me.

I'd go nuts trying to maneuver with an alarm sounding off like that. You made it look easy, so obviously does not affect you two. Nice job and thanks for sharing!

FEEL THE BERN 2020!!!! Love the shirt and vid. Nicely done. Show us a cross wind docking next time? Maybe with the wind blowing you off the dock AND on to the dock.

When I saw the Bern shirt I laughed because Bern felt the burn and had a mild heart attack and I thought Ken was feeling the same burn. Please tell us about the prop walk effect next time, it looks like she moves a lot to starboard. Good vid,

Ya gotta love "Tips on Tuesday" its short sharp presentation is fantastic.

Ugh, that beeping! Makes me think I'm in a hospital. Never sailed a boat with a bow thruster but a few practices with how the boat reacts and it looks to be no different than any other kind of boat docking. You just get used to the 'feel' and 'reaction'. You get to "know her".

If I could give it 1000 likes, I would!! Great info but maybe more info on steering/maneuvering at little to no speed; no rudder control.

Sailing Aquarius Around The World - 4 years ago

That might be good for another video!

Well done. But, "Feel the Bern"???

I liked the video first because of the Bernie shirt, then because of everything else.

As a pilot, that warning buzzer was driving me crazy... you should always silence an alarm once you acknowledge the problem and have determined it isn't an issue. If you got another warning from a different issue, you might lose that because your brain has tuned out the first alarm. (plus it annoys the crap out of your viewers! :-). Nice docking job however Skip!

Sailing Aquarius Around The World - 4 years ago

When I have less than 3M under my keel, I am watching the Echo Pilot all the time. And each time it beeps I try to make a quick scan. I will keep the beep, for now.. But, I do agree with the statement. Thanks!

lucien pellerin - 4 years ago

Next time,cut the beep off.
Safe travels.

Dear Zivile & Ken, very good video. This shows perfectly the sensation when entering a new marina. Never docked a centre cockpit vessel yet. Seems harder than an aft cockpit. However Ken, nice docking! Grtz Scintilone

Thanks Grtz!
