Reminds me of once approaching a mooring ball in Great Harbor, Peter Island, it was floating only five feet (really) behind a catamaran already on the next mooring ball. Their crew had big eyes as we approached their stern (close enough to pass a drink) and nicely attached our cat to the mooring. Of course once we were attached we drifted a safe distance behind them. The breeze kept us safely apart, no backwinding. Another time we were about to set a stern line to shore in Little Harbor, Peter Island, when the captain of the boat next to us asked if we would move our boat further away, as his crew wanted more privacy. He was nice about it and seemed a reasonable request, so we moved a little further away.
