Qué cubre este vídeo

Alexandros Retsinas demonstrates a Mediterranean mooring technique for a Lagoon 40 catamaran in Delta Marina Kallithea.▶ 0:51 Facing 20–25 knots of wind, the maneuver requires precise engine control to pivot the vessel and maintain alignment while backing toward the quay.▶ 0:51 The process begins by positioning the catamaran near the intended slip to gauge wind direction and distance.▶ 1:47 The operator uses differential engine thrust to pivot the boat, keeping the bow into the wind to prevent the catamaran from being pushed off course.▶ 2:33 Once aligned, the crew drops the anchor, paying out approximately 30 meters of chain to ensure a secure hold.▶ 3:22 The operator then uses short bursts of engine power to maintain position against the wind while the crew monitors the anchor's bite.▶ 4:17 If the anchor fails to hold or the distance to the quay is misjudged, the crew must be prepared to abort the approach and reset the anchor.▶ 7:43 Precise communication regarding chain length and distance to the quay is essential for a controlled arrival.▶ 5:04
