Just started sailing. While there's a lot of trash talk I've found other boaters to be among the kinder more generous people I've met. Always there to assist newbies. Have had a great time so far and am moving from a 23' Erickson to a 30' Catalina. Plan to take some sailing lessons soon after reading the books recommended by the ASA. My boat partner knows a lot more than I do.

Once upon a time I decided I wanted to buy a sailboat. Had done a bit of dinghy sailing and thought a 20-something-footer would be fun. I walked onto the deck of a 28' boat, looked at all the rigging, the instruments, the engine, and thought "Damn! Better get some lessons first!" Spent the next three years at the Baltimore Downtown Sailing Center, working my way up from Crew to Skipper, and got an ASA and US Sailing certification along the way. When I finally bought my own Capital Yachts Newport 28, I felt very comfortable single-handing her in all conditions on Chesapeake Bay. Definitely get the lessons first!

Conditions look really still. The impression given is that the helmsman basically doesn't know how to steer or control a boat. It would seem better for a student or newbie to get a basic feel for control of the boat in more open water where there aren't so many things to hit, letting them learn in tight docking situations when they don't have the basics down seems a bit reckless. I'd imagine they'd have a hard time staying insured if they had incidents like this all the time, or if their insurer ever got a look at this video.

The skipper turned hard to starboard without reducing the thrust which has resulted in the bow turning 90 degrees right then continuing the turn towards the docks, look at how big was his turning curve, he should have gone to idle and straightened the rudder as soon as his stern was out of the dock and if he was still going too fast and straight towards the facing docks/boats then a small kick in reverse will slow the boat and assist the bow in turning to starboard.

The prop is not steerable like on an outboard engine, its shaft direction is fixed to the hull. The propeller is placed in front of the rudder so giving some power in forward gear will create a water flow from the propeller over the rudder that makes the rudder more effective than what is given only by the boats speed through the surrounding water. In reverse gear, you will not have the benefit of this.

Can soneone explain me what the f*ck happened there??? We have a 33 f sailingboat and we see so many horrible things , mostly from rentboats. But this..?!?! It‘s like they were not using the steering wheel. I think many people underestimate the difficulty to “drive” a boat. We began with a little 4 meters motorboat, then a 6 meters sailboat, then a 9,95x2,95 sailboat and now a 10,05x3,45 sailboat. So we learned slowly and safely. And of course where we live we need to get a licence doing classes etc. But in general, the most important thing: first think about what you are going to do, then do things slowly(!!!), if they don’t work out just go back to the beginning and try again. When we go into the harbout and need to dock we first see how the current and the wind is and how it is going to move the boat and how we can use these powers in our advantage. Then we think about what we are going to do and how, and then slowly we do it.

That's horrifying... never been quite that out of control / frozen in fear. My first bad experience: First time un-docking my little C27. I was immediately caught off guard when she wouldn't respond to any tiller position in reverse even at full throttle. Seemed to just go straight back and slightly starboard (towards my neighbor). I kept thinking, what am I doing wrong? I would throw the tiller a bit to force me away from my neighbor and try again (something that only works in a small boat). But after 3 attempts, gave up. Didn't panic, just changed plans. I had capable dock hands standing by and figured we can suck it back in or try something else. Finally decided I would just go straight back into the lane as close to the aft vessel as I could safely get, then jammed it forward full throttle where it turned on her center. At one point, a by-stander yelled: "Ya, good luck trying to get that little 2 blade to respond in reverse!" That was seriously embarrassing! Once in the bay, I practiced a few times and realized the bystander was correct. It took well over 4 boat lengths to see any turn at all in reverse. Basically, my plan B would become plan A from now on. But we had a plan C which was let the dock hands pull her back into the slip. No plan should involve potentially hitting your neighbors! Hopefully these people left their insurance info at least. Main issue with people like this, is they have zero plan at all. No thought went into leaving the dock. Best safety is have dock hands you can pick up later at the fuel dock and have help for your first time with a new vessel.
@janentomenkafka

Hi James, you probably have figured everything out after all that time. In that case this may help someone else. Reversing a single engine boat is often tricky. Your propeller moves more water at its lowest point than at its high point. If your propeller turns clockwise when in reverse, your stern moves to starboard. Mine does the same. When I go astern and the rear starts moving to the right, I give a very short burst forward to correct the alignment of the boat. Then I put the engine back in reverse for a few meters until I have to correct the course again. You can use this effect to your advantage... when you moor the boat along a dock (or in a lock) at your starboard side, a bit of reverse power will pull your stern towards the dock. Handy when handling the boat by yourself ;-)

This is why I think a proper Navigational education should be mandatory passed a certain boat size. I own a 33' sailboat and a 47' power boat , and nobody asked me anything when I purchased them and insured them. Only regular driving license for car is needed. I came from France where you can't sail any kind of boat past a certain power or size without having a specific license that is not that easy to get. This skipper might be used to power boat (or not) and doesn't realize that maneuvering a sailboat is a completely different story . Understanding the prop woke and the physics of a hull as well as inertia is key is this case. Speed is not a friend and can have the opposite effect of what is desired. The prop woke can be reduced at minimum backing speed but the effect of a rudder to steer the boat baking with too much power is close to zero and the prop woke is affecting even more. Anyway I feel sorry for him, and his crew was probably not educated to help either. Thank you for sharing, it helps to educate people on what not to do and consider that a boat is evolving on a moving surface, people have a tendency to forget it.

Especially on a boat I haven't been on before I put helm over both directions IN THE SLIP. There is no need to wait till you are under way to test this out. If you are uncertain about boat leave it tied up, check to make sure good spring lines without slack, and put it in gear in idle (I normally start with reverse in case dock lines have a problem - more time to fix). You can actually see rudder effect on prop wash right at the dock AND can confirm which way prop turns for reverse for prop walk. Now you've run engine for a bit under some load, you've gotten a handle on prop walk for reversing particularly or tight turns (use prop walk in the back and fill), and you've confirmed no rudder issues. Sometimes issues can be at the wheel as well, something sticking through spokes etc. This case looks like issues at skipper level. If you get stuck just stay stopped, if you can't steer (I doubt that) don't power up boat.

Captain Freddy there's some real stupid people behind wheel on a boat. When I did commercial fishing we used a Minesweeper. From the Vietnam era. Fiberglass hull 10 ft wide 36 ft long. Powered by a 671 with a two and a half foot diameter 3 blade prop. We were towing a beam trawl net. We even built our own nets. The net design was based on a Italian design. The original nets we had were built by the Italian brothers we got the design from. After the brothers passed away we had to build our own Nets to harvest shrimp to sell to bait shops all around the Bay Area. On an average day Our delivery truck covered over 350 miles. That was a 12 hour work day. Sometimes I would drive the delivery truck at other times I would be on the shrimp boat as a deckhand the boat captain was my best friend. The sad thing is diabeetus and hepatitis took him away. He was 61 and a half years old. I miss the good old days when we weren't shrimping we were at the shooting range with our rifles and handguns. That's if we weren't out hunting waterfowl. For a guy that's using beam trawl Nets to fish with. He needs to have three Nets one he's working on the boat with a backup in case that one gets damaged and one that he's building every year we would build a new net. By the time we retired from fishing. There were enough nets for the captain son to take over the boat and run it the rest of his life. We also had a reserved 671 sitting on the garage floor at the Captain's House. It's not uncommon to get about 20 years of use out of a 671.

A sailboat is an unbelievably maneuverable thing with the least bit of headway because of the rudder. There was plenty.. the least little flick of the wheel and that boat could have been pointed in any direction. Really bizarre.

Yeah, my Hunter 31 turns on a dime. I have trouble with powerboats because they only turn if it's in gear and driving.

Funny video. Like The 3 Stooges taking out a sailboat. Does the skipper, or the crew for that matter, have any idea what they're doing?

My step father bought a power boat first. He ripped the cleats off the dock once he even ripped off the outboard. Then he decided to buy a power boat, got it stuck on a muddy bank at low tide ran the whole boat up on the bank, 3k in repairs to the engine and bottom it too the repair guy a week to flush the mud out it the engine. Then when things were running again he had a dock built at our house on the river, he ripped the dock out when he and his drunk buddies decided to go fishing early one morning ( mom wouldn’t let me go) dad said yeah he will be the only one sober in the boat to drive or dock the boat. I stopped at the Marina to buy me some sodas I took the keys with me one of the guys untied the boat so they could drift fish while I was in buy my sodas. It took the coast guard two days to find the boat with them passed out drunk in the boat. Out sea! After that mom shot holes in both boats.

I think for my _first_ attempt at steering a boat/ship will be a luxury liner. What could go wrong? 🚢

Oh dear.First time my Dad took the helm of the hire boat,he got us stuck on a sandbank in the river.He was so used to driving cars,I suppose.I was 13 ,never driven anything,but someone had to get us moving and after ten minutes,my Mum insisted on me steering from then on.We had a 36 foot boat for 2 weeks and i docked in many places smaller than this.Never hit anything and seemed to impress a lot of old salts,which was very pleasing to my teenage female ego.These eejits need ten minutes to learn their left from right.

Germans have an ironic expression for this situation: 'Hafenkino'. Roughly translated into: 'Harbor Theatre'.

Should report that owner to the harbormaster - maybe you can have him expelled so that he doesn't put anyone elses's boat at risk - or worse!

They don't seem to understand the need for water to be flowing over the control surfaces? Or maybe its a long keel with small rudder?
