- Tips and tricks to perform a good single-handed wharfage mooring.
As the saying goes, if you want something done do it yourself, and in no situation is this more true than on a boat. When with family or inexperienced friends, a yachtsman wanting to get out of trouble and get the situation under control needs to reason as if he were alone. Then if someone on board helps him, so much the better, but he must be able to act on his own.
So let's see how to perform a single-handed wharfage mooring.
We shoot this video in Marina Cala dei Sardi, a wonderful marina in Nord est Sardinia, in Cugnana gulf.

You did an excellent job covering the wharfage mooring fundamentals.
I knew the mooring done in this way. Congratulations, you explain it very well
Mate you have made me nostalgic just watching this. Pre covid I sailed a week in Sardinia in 2019 and absolutely loved it.
Wow, che bello! Bravo!
Well made video and great instruction, very clear and easy to understand. Thank you.
Thanks for your contribution to the sailing industry & to all sailing lovers ;-)
Thank you, subscribed and looking forward to perusing more videos.
Good job SVN
Thank you
It is a very well-done video. I wonder if there is, let's say, 20 knots side wind where I put the anchor? I can't put the anchor in the same place with no wind.
Perfect maneuver! However, I don't understand one thing... Here in video(4:49), and also in your instructional PDF, when parallel to dock, you recommend turning wheel towards the dock and engage reverse. As far I know, when in reverse, there is no prop wash helping to move your stern, so why turn the wheel towards the dock? Maybe propwalk could help if you have clockwise rotation on propeller during reverse.
If you turn the wheel towards the quay, the blade will also turn towards the quay, and if you give the reverse stroke, it will hit the water and be moved towards the quay, helping you to dock.
Oh I see, so backward movement results in pushing of water onto skewed rudder blade which forces stern to slightly move. Probably not so strong as prop wash with forward movement, but still could help. Thank you!

Good video. Was there any current involved?
No there was no current, only side wind
I have tried many times to do this mooring when the wind blows off the dock, and every time it has been a problem.
Wharfage mooring doesn't happen often, but when it does, and it's windy, you need to know how to do it.
