A crosswind Med mooring maneuver is broken down step by step, with wind from the starboard side and prop walk pushing the bow to port.0:10 Alexandros Retsinas coaches student Petra through the approach, emphasizing bow alignment before dropping the anchor as the primary goal of each phase.0:28 The sequence: point the bow into the wind to achieve alignment, signal the bow crew to drop the anchor, then use full rudder downwind to fight windage and hold position.0:45 If the anchor drops off-target, the chain already in the water allows a corrective re-approach without a full reset.1:13 Petra overshoots into the wind deliberately, using prop walk as a counterforce rather than fighting it.1:19 Once inside the slot, the priority shifts to controlling distance from the dock; the crew uses a neighboring boat and fenders as a buffer rather than stressing over line speed.2:36 After securing the stern line to a cleat, the engine is put briefly ahead to create leverage while the windlass operator pulls the chain tight under the skipper's direction from the bow.3:17 The leeward line is the last step.3:42 Knowing which force — wind or prop walk — dominates at each moment lets the helmsman plan corrections before they become emergencies.
