Joystick, bow thruster, position holding or automated docking: each solution offers a different answer.\n\nHere is an overview of the technologies that make single-handed mooring easier.<\/p>\n    <div class=\"bn-ac-hero__actions\">\n      <a class=\"bn-ac-hero__btn\" href=\"https:\/\/bluenav.com\/en\/contact-our-teams\/\">Check my boat's compatibility<\/a>\n      <a class=\"bn-ac-hero__btn bn-ac-hero__btn--ghost\" href=\"https:\/\/bluenav.com\/en\/software-system\/\">Discover Smart Navigation<\/a>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-13bd522 elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"13bd522\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\n.bn-ac-why{width:100vw;position:relative;left:50%;margin-left:-50vw;background:#fff;padding:100px 64px}\n.bn-ac-why__inner{max-width:1100px;margin:0 auto}\n.bn-ac-why__label{text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:.15em;font-size:.72rem;font-weight:600;color:#328f85;display:block;margin-bottom:12px}\n.bn-ac-why__title{font-size:2rem;font-weight:700;color:#1d1d3f!important;line-height:1.2;margin-bottom:20px}\n.bn-ac-why__text{font-size:1rem;color:#5a5f7a;line-height:1.75;max-width:none!important;width:100%;margin-bottom:16px}\n.bn-ac-why__sub{font-size:1.4rem;font-weight:700;color:#1d1d3f!important;margin:64px 0 24px}\n.bn-ac-why__grid{display:grid;grid-template-columns:repeat(2,1fr);gap:24px;margin-bottom:24px}\n.bn-ac-why__card{background:#f4f5f7;border:1px solid #e8eaf0;border-radius:20px;padding:28px 32px}\n.bn-ac-why__card-title{font-size:1.05rem;font-weight:700;color:#1d1d3f!important;margin-bottom:4px;line-height:1.3}\n.bn-ac-why__divider{width:28px;height:2px;background:#328f85;border-radius:2px;margin:12px 0}\n.bn-ac-why__card-text{font-size:.92rem;color:#5a5f7a;line-height:1.7}\n@media(max-width:900px){.bn-ac-why{padding:64px 32px}.bn-ac-why__grid{grid-template-columns:1fr}}\n<\/style>\n\n<div class=\"bn-ac-why\">\n  <div class=\"bn-ac-why__inner\">\n    <span class=\"bn-ac-why__label\">The challenge<\/span>\n    <h2 class=\"bn-ac-why__title\">Why docking alone is so tricky<\/h2>\n    <p class=\"bn-ac-why__text\">With a crew member, the maneuver is shared: one steers, the other handles the line. Alone, you have to do both. And the moment you let go of the controls to grab a line is precisely when the boat, left to the wind and current, starts drifting away from the dock.<\/p>\n    <p class=\"bn-ac-why__text\">The whole point, then, is to shorten the time when nobody is holding the boat. That is the yardstick for judging every aid.<\/p>\n\n    <h3 class=\"bn-ac-why__sub\">Mooring your boat alone: the basic method<\/h3>\n    <div class=\"bn-ac-why__grid\">\n      <div class=\"bn-ac-why__card\">\n        <h4 class=\"bn-ac-why__card-title\">Prepare everything before entering port<\/h4>\n        <div class=\"bn-ac-why__divider\"><\/div>\n        <p class=\"bn-ac-why__card-text\">Fenders out on the side you will dock on and at the right height, lines coiled and ready to run.<\/p>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"bn-ac-why__card\">\n        <h4 class=\"bn-ac-why__card-title\">Check where the wind and current are coming from<\/h4>\n        <div class=\"bn-ac-why__divider\"><\/div>\n        <p class=\"bn-ac-why__card-text\">They determine your angle of approach and which way the boat will drift.<\/p>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"bn-ac-why__card\">\n        <h4 class=\"bn-ac-why__card-title\">Start with the midship line<\/h4>\n        <div class=\"bn-ac-why__divider\"><\/div>\n        <p class=\"bn-ac-why__card-text\">A line made fast at the beam, in the middle of the boat, holds it against the pontoon while you set the others.

It works only as long as you operate it: as soon as you leave the controls to handle a line, it no longer holds anything. With BlueNav propulsion, the question looks different: our hybridization solution eliminates the need for additional bow and stern thrusters.<\/p>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n\n      <div class=\"bn-ac-aid__card\">\n        <div class=\"bn-ac-aid__card-body\">\n          <h3 class=\"bn-ac-aid__card-title\">The joystick<\/h3>\n          <div class=\"bn-ac-aid__divider\"><\/div>\n          <p class=\"bn-ac-aid__card-text\">It combines steering and propulsion in a single lever. With the <a href=\"https:\/\/bluenav.com\/en\/bluenav-joystick\/\">BlueNav 3D Joystick<\/a>, you simply push to go forward, pull to go astern, twist to pivot and slide to move sideways.

The system brings the boat back to a previously saved GPS position and holds it within \u00b120 cm. While you prepare the lines, or to counter wind and current along a dock, it makes the necessary corrections continuously.<\/p>\n        <p class=\"bn-ac-aid__card-text\">The position can also be adjusted from the <a href=\"https:\/\/bluenav.com\/en\/bluenav-app\/\">BlueNav App<\/a>, from anywhere on the boat. You handle mooring on your own, with no second person needed to hold the boat in position. This technology received <a href=\"https:\/\/bluenav.com\/en\/bluenav-wins-the-2026-innovation-route-award\/\">the 2026 Innovation Route Award<\/a> at the Cannes Yachting Festival.
