- Docking skills, twin engines aboard a Silverton MY. Watch as we learn skills in Longboat Key Moorings near Sarasota Bay FL. A little rain and light winds. First time docking his new boat. Watch our 60 minute training video DOCKING. Click here, www.captainchr...
“The other left”... 🤣 That’s what I like about Captain Chris... not mentioning his skills, of course. Good video as usual...
Happy New Year!
Hello captain Chris I like to give you a big shout out and a thank you for all your videos and I'll say teaching on stern in docking,, I'm in Jersey on the Delaware river and this weekend was my first weekend of the season on the boat and I must say that watching your videos all winter long, and then putting the skills into play this weekend I must say it made me feel really good and professional at the helm with docking, very little butterflies, lil ed you always say slow is pro,, thanks for all your videos and sharing your skills Capt
Thank you Carl from Jersey
Thanks for watching and for letting us know you are out there having fun. 👍🏼
Shows the importance of having the guidance of an experienced captain, has to be one of the best investments to make when new to boating.
We agree! Thanks for watching.
Good teacher captain Chris
Thanks 👍🏼
Nice job Chris!
Very patient teacher. Awesome.
Happy New Year!
All of us were rookies when we started boating. As a trucker, I have to remind myself of that every day. Some drivers are just painful to watch at truck stops and loading docks.
Don't get me wrong. I still have my bad days too. I got my Class A Chauffer's License (before CDLs) in 1980. Been doing that a while. I'm used to maneuvering large equipment. But, a boat handles differently than a truck. So I will be learning all over again.
And we all started at the beginning. Most of us didn’t have a camera on catching our every mistake and hesitation. Good luck with your adventure.
you are the man captain great job.
Happy New Year!
Excellent instructor 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for watching. We post a video daily- something to make you think about what to know before you go. Subscribe today and be sure to poke around our many hundreds of videos in each playlist. Anchoring, docking, engine rooms and more.
Great vid! Looking forward to docking with differential thrust too. Thanks!
Why is it nobody ever looks astern when helming?
Even bimbling (an English euphemism) along down the harbour there’s invariably someone keen and in a hurry trying to pass you. More importantly impinging on your self imposed 50 metre “bubble of calm” that you keep around you.
Happy New Year 👍🏻👍🏻
Oh yes, I love the casual way you point out to the poor guy his plotter is out of date. I did chuckle, my note was that he was way too far zoomed out for it to have been of any help. But as you pointed out - the view out and the plotter didn’t align anyway. A latest copy of the Navionics App on the instructor’s phone for “just in case” purposes is the way to go.
This was early in his training when most new owners are hyper focused on just one part of the task at hand. I had his 6 😎 Happy New Year!
@@AskCaptainChris don’t worry I’m not knocking it 🤓🤓.
Just a question, had the skipper driven any RIBs, smaller power boats or even sailing dinghies? It really did look like his first time on the water in anything!
You are correct. He had never owned any boat and thought it would be a good idea to get some training. We concur. More new owners should consider it. 😎
Happy New year Chris-Alysse and everyone else! Nice long video to start the year off-Thanks Capt...that boats got some smooth controllers on it-I love that no wresting -nice and responsive.
John M back atcha! HNY 2021!
Great video Chris love to see vids to conclusion, all the best in the new year
Happy New Year!
Is there a docking video for only single screw?
Our 60minute docking video includes twin, single and pods.
0:12 This is the reason we use port and starboard.
Use whatever works for you and whatever terms you and your crew have in muscle memory so communication is clear. That’s the most important safety tip for pleasure boaters. Port and starboard are sides of the boat and are often terms that new boat owners are not familiar with. Most of us have grown up learning right and left as directional information and even at that we occasionally must throw in “your other left” 😎
Good one!
Two hands on the throttles in the first 10 seconds 😬
Wow I wasn't expecting a video at this hour! Happy New Year. I had to get up and go pee about 12:00 does that count ?😅😅😅.Love your channel Your friend Alabama Smokey Wilson
Happy New Year!
Don’t you have to rudders straight to make the 360 turn etc. Having them in a different position will affect the manoeuvre ?
its a twin engine so you can spin without steering input
Which country. This
America. The good ole U.S.of A.
That was painful to watch. Long Boat Key Club is the easiest Marina.
Most of us (fortunately) didn’t have a camera on us the first few times we took our boat out.
Oh boy this new Captain is painful to watch..... way too much boat
