We tied up for a short stay yesterday and as we were motoring away from the docks, noticed that a boat at another dock had come untied at the port stern. It was still tied at the port bow. It got 90 degrees to the dock and was about to make contact with another boat on the adjacent dock on the right, when I was able to get my bow in close enough for my wife to get a hold of the port side stern cleat with a boat hook. I eased my boat in and out of reverse, hard to port, and brought it gently back to the dock where some kind souls re-tied it.

Being a nice Summer Saturday, the wake action at the docks was pretty intense, I have no doubt there would have been some serious gel coat damage to two or more boats, had it been left like that. Please be more careful when tying up.
