Could you moor in a tricky windward slot?
Q Andy’s home berth is alongside a walkashore pontoon on a river. Outside is another pontoon not attached to the shore. There is quite a strong tidal stream, up to 2 knots at mid-tide.
Although the berth is convenient for getting ashore there, with a three-bladed prop and with a prop kick to port when engaged astern and no bow thruster.
