What this video covers

Alexandros Retsinas manoeuvres a catamaran into a tight berth at Agkistri Island in the Mediterranean. The docking procedure emphasises clear communication between the helm and the crew on deck to maintain control of the vessel’s heading during the approach. Retsinas directs the crew to manage the boat's momentum and position, specifically instructing them to keep the stern approximately one metre from the quay.▶ 3:44 The technique involves using the engines to adjust the boat's orientation while avoiding excessive speed, ensuring the vessel does not drift or strike adjacent boats.▶ 0:50 The crew monitors the distance to the quay throughout the manoeuvre to ensure a controlled arrival. Proper coordination and throttle management allow the catamaran to settle into the berth without relying on aggressive engine bursts.
