Twins 20 feet apart is a dream! Lock the wheel when going astern, use the throttles. Practice helps. I remember my first time backing into a slip at Leverick. I was a wreck (mentally). Tito and his guys were such a big help! wave

Good you tube stuff out there too about docking, anchoring, balls and bridles.



Exactly JPhart, that's one of the reasons I want to get that practical experience is to take the time to learn the different systems on a Cat.

Funny, but I too stressed when backing into a slip in Leverick. The owner of a sailing school was in the adjacent slip, and graciously offered to help out, along withTito's team. Made it super easy as I was a bit rusty. Thanks for the YouTube suggestion. I've seen a few on managing docking maneuvers and will continue to beef up those skills.
