@@federox86@federox86 repeated mistakes mean you're learning. I know it sounds cliche, but you can't learn anything you you don't make mistakes. I have learned so much just through trial and error
It’s nice to see the crew more comfortable being on cam. If anyone ever told you they make no mistakes they’ed be lying. No harm no foul. Learn and move on. Another great video Tristan. Cheers.
The difference between a boss and a leader is when a leader can make the most of a mistake rather than find fault. Good job Capt., and Morgan, no one was hurt that is paramount!
100% and like Tristan said we all do it. Im not sure about it being put on YT either but it does give a good insight to all the small things that need to be known and that can go wrong to manage a boat of this size.
Also agree 100% but the beauty of Tristan's blogs are that they are "warts and all" ....nobody's perfect no matter how hard they try. Thinking about it, I recall that there's an old post around titled "we crash a superyacht" or something like that. 😉😉
@@f40ian Yeah, he had an incident a few years ago while leaving a port. If I remember correctly in his debrief he admitted there was a line from another vessel he should have asked to be moved. One added beauty of Tristan's channel is he doesn't over dramatize things or drag anybody through the mud. Any discussions, discipline, or debrief is done off camera, as it should be.
Indeed! There are a lot of mistakes made by crew onboard a yacht. Most of it goes unnoticed. And, there are plenty of captains on here that will deny they've ever run a boat aground (and yes, a power out pan pan and/or at anchor counts). Yeah...
Don’t sweat it Morgan “stuff” happens. I stuck a digger bucket through a fence today. Been driving excavators for 30 years on and off. Never had a single accident before. Took a lot of stick and came back from lunch to find learner stickers on the cab. 😂😂 No one hurt, other than the fence no real damage done. 😂😂 Underway I was told just means not at anchor or tied to shore jetty or heaven’s forbid run aground. 😂😂
Love that you are willing to show mistakes. Easy to edit these bits out. Says a lot about you Tristan that you are happy to show these aspects that we know happen but not many would choose to show it. EVERYONE makes mistakes at every level. Thats how we learn and develop. 👍🏼
It's called "warts & all" and there's absolutely nothing wrong in it. Mistakes happen, brain fog happens, none of us are totally infallible. No one was hurt, nothing was broken. Dust yourself down and move on. Enjoy your family time Tris.
Impressed with your management style. Yes, we learn more from our mistakes and we all make mistakes. You’re right “she won’t make that mistake again” definitely a learning experience. Again no one was hurt, vessel was not damaged and you handled the situation properly.
I’ve enjoyed that today Alejandro was wearing the head camera. That way we can see not only “your” view, but also other crew members view/tasks. A lot of thing are going on at the same time while docking and is nice to see them. Thanks!!
We all do make mistakes. Thanks for finally showing us one lol. I watch loon and many others and while I love live the channels it’s always rainbows and sunshine for em. Nice to see some real world stuff. Safe travels captain.
Anchoring is an Art , there is a lot too it. Ive done it many many times but never in a yacht anywhere near your size. I think I'd want to go and practice in a secret location where no one was watching before attempting with the big league.
Don't stress over it, Morgan! When I was working on the water, my skipper would just call it a brain fart 😂 Never made that mistake again. You have a great and very knowledgeable skipper who will guide you and bring the best out of you. Big thumbs 👍 up to you, Captain and crew. Great , to see you back, where you belong.
Mistakes happen. If they make the team work better then it's just part of the process of improving. Love the B-Roll from the team. My guess for underway: when a boat is headed to a new destination.
Interesting , Thank You for showing more of you're fine crew , as we all should know a Captain is only as good as his boat and crew . Thank You for showing so much of what is Actually involved . So nice that you Remember Wife , Kid and ? As to the anchoring , Nice Save, Crew and Captain MUST work togather
Having been at sea most of my life on everything from container ships and bulk carriers to racing yachts and power boats, mistakes are made everybody makes them including professionals who have been at sea all their lives. What is important is exactly what you did, turn it into a teaching moment everyone can learn from. Show this as you did could save someone’s life or prevent serious injury in the future. An out of control chain is truely frightening.
I’m getting ready to move from larger center console to mid size M/Y, so all of this bridge info and pre and post, engineering check lists are so very helpful, so from a smaller tonnage and just starting on M/Y’s I’m so greatly appreciative of these videos and all your learning videos from your start! Hoping to meet you one day, I will owe you so many of your favorite adult beverage!!!
I love that your videos are back on again and you being a captain on the ship and showing us all about what’s going on. Thanks for another great fun video.
Even a seasoned crew gets a bit rattled once in a while. You all handled it well. The stress of docking and departure is always playing head games for all on board. It’s the closest maneuvering to other vessels we do and the margins for error shrink to almost nothing. It’s awesome you edited the remainder of the docking. We praise in public and criticize in private. I’m sure based on the real time response, your after action debrief was a confidence booster rather than sharp tongue. So glad you are back on a boat again making this content.
Another good video, Tristan. I d have been happier if you’d had the whole crew together on camera for that criticism of Morgan and for her to have had a say. As you said, it wasn’t a big deal but for a crew member, who is striving to be perfect, it IS a big deal; something that’s hard to leave behind and move on from. Look after your crew, Tristan; first principle of good leadership.
So glad you leave in the good, bad and the ugly. This makes me grateful that my dockings aren't live streamed. Looking forward to the next installment.
Don’t worry, Morgan! We live, we learn. Every day we grow and have new opportunities. I am glad you are safe, and was able to grow from the experience. Thank you for all you do!
Your video productions are just getting better and better Capt. Morgan thank you so much for sharing your expertise as a yacht captain. On a side note I remember on more than one occation my dad replying to folks that addressed him Capt. Mike, depenting on that person his reply was "to my mother I'm a Captain and to my father I'm a captain but to a captain, I'm not a captain." Safe travels and may the winds always be to your back.
I find your commentary very, very interesting and informative. As an unrealistic wannabe superyacht owner, living aboard in my final decade travelling the globe, I'd tend to view the captain as the chauffeur and the chief engineer as the mechanic that does the oil changes while revering the chef that fills my stomach delightfully 3 times per day. Obviously I'm dementing, have no grip on reality but I'd still like the chef to have a nice cabin near my suite and a very close relationship! What you show very easy to understand, so clearly to appreciate is the obvious complexity and professionalism of a good captain, in so many aspects, essentially as a manager of people and critical tasks. Kudos to you, you are good as a superyacht captain but ashore, you'd make a great manager too!
Awesome to see the rest of the crew! Too bad you missed Captain Paul, it’s great to see Loon out in the “wild” like that. Thanks for the great videos. I’m really liking this style of your day-to-day life.
Most big yacht dockings seem to go smoothly, it's kind of a relief to see that even experienced crews sometimes make a mistake. Very interesting to watch the careful pre-departure checks and I did not know that yachts need permission to cross sea lanes. Thanks for an enjoyable and informative video.
Happens to the best of us. Totally right, best kind of mistake to make. No one hurt, no damage to the boat, just a damaged ego. A learning experience with little cost.
Morgan, working on yachts we have all made these kinds of things. You have a good captain and as he says, if no one is hurt it is fine as longs as we learn from these things.😊
Great video, love your instructional style of going through things. Great that you're understanding and patient with the crew too (No sweat Morgan, things happen.... no harm no foul so all good!). Enjoy the great weather!
On one boat, putting 2 anchors out, stb windlass went into free fall. The chain rumbled out even with the brake on. The friction plate had worked loose and was just spinning. Had to haul up a load of chain and then motor it out. All very slow but a good warning to service both anchor winches, brakes (obvs) and clutches.
mate i liked how you didn't scream and shout at her, as you say everyone makes mistakes no matter how long you have done, its how you deal with it and move on is most important, respect to ya for how you dealt with it on camera 👍
It's clear "something" went wrong but would love to know exactly what it was and what could have prevented it from happening in the future. That said, I'm glad the crew are making more appearances and while Morgan won't feel this way, I'm glad to see the reality of boat operation. Hope to be the owner of one like this some day. Chao for now.
Nice trip and new controls to look at. As for the docking, these things happen pass on to not feel bad and like you said it probably will never happen again. We have all had a brain fade at some point in whatever we are used to doing and have an oops moment, it has happened and behind so chin up and carry on.
Love this episode! We just bought a new to us 2000 Sea Ray 30' Sundancer and I'm trying to get used to handling a twin engine having come from a single engine. I'm trying not to let my mistakes intimidate me. This helped! We boat on the Great Lakes.
yep, i got a 32' twin engine no bowthruster. love boating but its always a nervy moment coming in to dock. especially as there is always a different person on hand to help.
That thing with the bow thruster working in opposite direction to the control was on my boat too when I bought it. I don't know how many years the previous owner had lived with that but it took me only ten minutes to rewire.
...Klasse, daas Du wieder Kapitän bist! Ich freue mich auf viele neue und interessante Videos! Ich mag Deine ruhige Art und Deine entspannte - gut zu verstehende - Aussprache! Danke....
Nice job. Liked the way you handled the it. We've all been there and screwed things up. Ain't no hiding it if it happens forward of the bridge. Just got to own it and learn.
Non boaters may not realize that as the anchor and chain goes out, the overboard weight rises quickly. This necessitates a close eye and the windlass brake as everything accelerates. I've had this happen to me a few times - especially in deeper water.
Hi, i found you on RUclips one day and not from a super Yacht background it's always good to see how the other half live 😊 and what's goes into sailing these impressive vessels, i won't say driving them in fear of the backlash, but love watching them and look forward to more. Peter
Making a mistake isn't a big problem unless it does cost a life. But what does matter is how we react to it at the time of correction and how we respond to it in the future. She stayed at her post and got the message with a little help from her captain. It really showed how much they both trusted each other.
Was watching the m/y Loon video earlier where they didn’t attach the bitter end and let the anchor head to Davy jones luckily they had dive gear available and were able to retrieve the gear
I’m sure Morgan will remember that one for a long time to come. We are all human we all make mistakes all ended well and she kept all her fingers. These things do happen onwards and upwards.
Hey Captain, another nice video, it's always a pleasure to follow you. Re the docking manoevre I personally prefer to get the anchor chain deployed faster than have it deployed to slow. Tighten it up at the end is always an option, the opposite not. All the best and cheers!
Had that happen in Croatia with a female deck/stew she was on anchor it started to run fast and she freaked the whole lot went out, managed to get a line on the chain to winch it back onto the gypsy. 💪🙉🙈
Mistakes are the key to lessons being learned by so many people. Morgan, having a brain fart is nothing more than human. That is all. No damage, no injury just learning. Happy sailing.
Everyone makes mistakes, no matter how well trained or experienced. No harm, no foul, and now everyone on the crew is refocused. This is why check lists are a must. The most experienced are sure they do everything right, no matter what they may be doing. Small errors add up over time. I preached this for many years over 2 careers, one of them in the US Navy.
Communication on board is key..., good job Captain and crew, miskakes are there be made, but as you said; just once... We had lots of dockings in Coratia in 2024 with a lot smaller vessel but still..., we do a short briefing before we dock, all members do visualize what has to be done and it helped us a lot with the routines on board. Fair winds and following seas...
We all have been in an situation where things went wrong or not the way they should. So dont worry Morgan! And for Tristan: I was hoping you would meet with Loon one day! Great Video!
Underway, I thought, meant low speed or stationary, but not anchored or tied up, free to move any way it wants. Making way means under some sort of propulsion (including sails, of course), with some speed - not slow (relative to the water).
Underway the second the anchor leaves the bottom or the last line is released from the dock. On a US Navy vessel, colors are shifted upon the call of “Underway, Shift Colors.” The National Ensign moves from the stern to the mast and the Jack is struck. I, of course, had nothing to do with any of this because I was below decks operating the boiler to make power.
Love the videos so far and looking forward to an engine room tour. So far you have shown all of the great and wonderful moments of being a captain. However, I know with a vessel that size and age, there has to be quite a long list of issues popping up and being fixed. Any chance we can get a video of some of the maintenance going on to fix the issues? Thanks and looking forward to the next video. ♥
Under way... " Free from moorings " floating free" . Making way... " Being propelled ( any type of propulsion) Great stuff as always Tris. Thanks for sharing
🦘🇦🇺 Thanks Tristan for yet again another great teaching vid. Obviously there are no two dockings alike. Everyone is different from the last. Def: underway. Vessel is not anchored or tied up, all gangways secured & vessel is navigating under its own power. Hope that’s right. Safe voyage. 🛟🙏
The trouble with dumping that much chain down on the anchor at the start is the chain can get caught around the flukes, and when you take up weight, the chain can trip the anchor out. Hope all went safely.
What a crew! Mistakes and mind-blanks are not IF but WHEN. The key is supporting each other, having each others’ backs. One team! Excellent teamwork during an abnormal. Bravo!

You should consider getting the earpiece adapter for the radios so she can still hear when things get loud.
As the pilots say any landing you can walk away from with no one hurt is a good one.
Nice that the rest of the crew now also participating and shooting videos. It makes it much more lively 👍🏻

Hello Crew! Thanks for the fun cameos!
Agree... Love their cameos .... Gosh they have got their work cut out for them !
When I was in the Navy, we had our anchor chain start running away like that.
It was...
Rather exhilarating. 😮
First time commenter: really appreciate these kinds of videos to see how crewed yachts maneuver and all that’s required.
We ended up buying headsets for the deck crew (Marriage Savers) which improved our safety onboard.
Love that you are willing to show mistakes. Easy to edit these bits out. Says a lot about you Tristan that you are happy to show these aspects that we know happen but not many would choose to show it. EVERYONE makes mistakes at every level. Thats how we learn and develop. 👍🏼

When he asked the question, he was not only "under way" but "making way" a tually 😊
Moving Forward.
A vessel is underway when it is afloat and not fixed in place, regardless of its speed or direction of movement.
No damage = succes. All that remains is improvement. That is what I tell my kids when we go out for a sail and have docked succesfully again.
Thanks for taking us along.

As an unrealistic wannabe superyacht owner, living aboard in my final decade travelling the globe, I'd tend to view the captain as the chauffeur and the chief engineer as the mechanic that does the oil changes while revering the chef that fills my stomach delightfully 3 times per day.

How much anchor chain was required, and when was the instruction given to the crew on the anchor winch?
Cool to see Loon as you were coming into the port.

Communication on board is key..., good job Captain and crew, miskakes are there be made, but as you said; just once...
We had lots of dockings in Coratia in 2024 with a lot smaller vessel but still..., we do a short briefing before we dock, all members do visualize what has to be done and it helped us a lot with the routines on board. Fair winds and following seas...
We all have been in an situation where things went wrong or not the way they should. So dont worry Morgan! And for Tristan: I was hoping you would meet with Loon one day! Great Video!
💯% we learn from failures/mistakes it’s what makes us stronger and smarter and allows us to grow as long as we don’t dwell on them.❤
Any docking you walk away from, is a good one.
Underway, I thought, meant low speed or stationary, but not anchored or tied up, free to move any way it wants. Making way means under some sort of propulsion (including sails, of course), with some speed - not slow (relative to the water).
Add not being aground to not anchored and not made fast to dock. shore or other stationary object and you have to full answer :)
Underway the second the anchor leaves the bottom or the last line is released from the dock.
On a US Navy vessel, colors are shifted upon the call of “Underway, Shift Colors.”
The National Ensign moves from the stern to the mast and the Jack is struck.
I, of course, had nothing to do with any of this because I was below decks operating the boiler to make power.
Tristan you should mount a 360 camera on the highest point of the boat so we can get a top down view and watch your slick operator skills 😎
No way that's Loon, that's my favorite YT channel 😆
Love the videos so far and looking forward to an engine room tour. So far you have shown all of the great and wonderful moments of being a captain. However, I know with a vessel that size and age, there has to be quite a long list of issues popping up and being fixed. Any chance we can get a video of some of the maintenance going on to fix the issues? Thanks and looking forward to the next video. ♥
Under way... " Free from moorings " floating free" . Making way... " Being propelled ( any type of propulsion) Great stuff as always Tris. Thanks for sharing
Or Under Weigh referring to the anchor’s weight is now being supported by the vessel.
🦘🇦🇺 Thanks Tristan for yet again another great teaching vid. Obviously there are no two dockings alike. Everyone is different from the last.
Def: underway. Vessel is not anchored or tied up, all gangways secured & vessel is navigating under its own power. Hope that’s right. Safe voyage. 🛟🙏
The trouble with dumping that much chain down on the anchor at the start is the chain can get caught around the flukes, and when you take up weight, the chain can trip the anchor out.
Hope all went safely.
Hi, what is the meaning of "the flukes" in this context, is it a section of the anchor?
What a crew! Mistakes and mind-blanks are not IF but WHEN. The key is supporting each other, having each others’ backs. One team! Excellent teamwork during an abnormal. Bravo!
That’s precisely why you’re the captain, calm under pressure and fast acting.
Nicely done,,thanks for sharing,,😊
Thank you for your videos
