Qué cubre este vídeo

A four-person crew aboard Saga47swan demonstrates a bridle-and-lasso docking technique at a pontoon with multiple cleats and bollards.Watch The skipper rigs a bridle from a winch, through a fairlead, down to a turning block, and onto the primary winch, so one person can handle both the helm and the bridle line without leaving the cockpit.0:16 The lasso technique involves throwing small loops — not large ones — at a cleat, using the Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro as a visual reference for the throwing motion.1:28 Once the lasso lands on the cleat, the crew tails the bridle in on the self-tailing winch.2:02 A crew member calls distance in meters from the bow as the boat approaches.2:23 The skipper notes the technique is especially useful when short-handed, since the winch gives mechanical advantage to pull the boat alongside without needing extra hands on the dock.0:14 A crew member successfully lassoes the cleat on the first attempt.3:18
