    I'm surprised this video hasn't had more views. The key to the success of this throw seems to be the extra length of rope "coiled" around the outside of the preformed loop . The weight of this gives the throw extra momentum and also imparts a slight rotation to the loop so that it opens up wide in the air before falling over the bollard. Very clever.

    The video is helping me.
    This is my third day on the tug
    Watching the mechanics of the throw

      It’s just like throwing a straight right punch. Keep your elbow in close to your body , and turn into the throw. Try to hit the bollard and the eye will drape right over it. Go out on the back deck and practice. You’ll get it.

    I haven't seen many guys that were very good at it. I spent 17 yrs decking line haul and harbor boats. Ohio river and a few others. Most guys I worked with couldn't throw worth a spit.

    So what’s so special about this I been line handling on push boats for 11 years and on my fifth edition of my Tankermen license farthest throw I’ve ever done was 35ft single part. I say this is nothing special because how could he miss the throw he was 5 ft from it. Most docks I go to you have to throw15 ft or a little more. And some dock you gotta throw 10 ft up or more. I’ll say this Sabine River Texas is where I go to all the docks and locks
