Moorings are approached with the bow into the wind and current. The retrieving and securing of the mooring pendant is a one person and only one person job, the others are just in the way under the guise of "helping".

Here is one demonstration on how the task is executed. Boat control is the key skill set and deliverable for success. The helm must have have the boat in control for the other tasks be successful. Slow, deliberate, into the wind stopping within easy reach of the pendant. If there is any doubt the helm should start over and repeat the approach.
