Ep 42: Single Handed Docking Departure Close Call

Welcome to Episode 42 of Carpe Diem Sailing, in this episode I analyze a tricky single handed departure which produced a lot of critical feedback when the original video aired a few weeks ago. I discuss the manoeuvre and the pros and cons of springing off in such a situation as well as the decision to leave or stay. In any docking or sailing manoeuvre it is ultimately the skipper’s responsibility to accurately judge the situation to determine what risk may exist based on their own skills and experience and it is their decision to proceed or not.
