New and need a manoeuvering tip

05/07/2008 21:03

Hi all, hope you can offer a tip. I am trying to back into a mooring between two boats in a marina in Greece. I struggle a little as I am new at this. It is a lazy line technique.

I have a 60 footer twin screw with bow thruster.

My problem is when the wind gets up... Should I be gently teasing her astern or commit and give here some beans astern to get in quick before the wind gets me?

Just looking for tips really.

Thanks for any help.

Cheers
