How do you use a passerelle when docked alongside a fixed pier? This is another very frequent scenario in the US and Bahamas. You can’t use it!...
Newish 60 Sunseeker had joined the dangerous boarding group here on my pier... :) Zero way of climbing over the sides. At low tide the platform...
Stern thrusters are really a waste on a twin diesel boat as splitting the gears (one in F one in R) will move the stern faster than a thruster....
