On my 42' Outrage, I start engines, engage skyhook, cast off and see ya! Automation has made life sooo easy.
Very detailed, great vid - thanks!

Im new to the channel, but excellent info. As someone looking to get into sailing/boating, these sort of practical insights are invaluable. As a British Army veteran the seven 'Ps' spring to mind, 'Prior Planning and Preparation Prevents Piss Poor Performance'. I also totally understand the point of view of having people around that want help but you know they will only be a hindrance, so you need to have least amount of things to worry about, whilst allowing guests to feel 'helpful'. Safety must be paramount. I shall look forward to viewing someof your previous postings

Thank you, great videographer (and you too Bill) 👀.

Seriously, it’s the unanswered questions and the unexpected tips that make the difference between Captain Steve’s videos and reality. (Not a knock on Capt Steve, his videos have their place and are appreciated).

Thanks again!

Thanks for the video. It was kinda fun to see how the bigger boats are managed. The yacht controller was a new feature that I had not seen before.
