I have had a boat on the same mooring for approx. 20 years and have
enjoyed the ease (stress free) of coming and going from it, especially
since I do mostly single handed sailing. However, I am considering
getting a 'slip' at our marina for next season. There are several
currently available, and with a 'bow in' docking (my preference) I have
the choice to do it from both port or starboard docking.
My boat has an 'offset prop shaft' which, I believe, accentuates the
prop walk to port when starting in reverse.
So my question is "Is there a preference for either a port or starboard
docking (bow in) with my prop walk situation?" Reasons why? Or does it
make any difference?
