A cruising couple recounts five navigation and docking incidents experienced during their early years of sailing. The first incident occurred in Turkey, where the captain attempted to secure a stern line to a rock without experience, resulting in a collision when the crew confused the neutral gear position on the sailboat’s transmission.3:51 In Bodrum, Turkey, the crew returned from shopping to find strangers aboard their boat, who had boarded to secure deck cushions during a high-wind event.7:23 A third incident involved a total engine failure while approaching a bay; the crew successfully navigated into the anchorage using only sails, later restarting the engine by connecting a solar-charged battery to the starter system.15:11 Near Favignana, Italy, the crew struggled to moor to a deep-water buoy in a four-knot current, eventually using a stern-to approach to manage the vessel's movement.17:22 Finally, the boat struck an underwater rock near a bay entrance after the captain became distracted by a mobile navigation app.23:02 The keel sustained no critical damage, and the vessel drifted free with the wind.27:25
