ALWAYS!!! TIE UP THE 'SPRING/MIDDLE LINE FIRST [and, always have it ready, on both sides!]...clyde
 
Seven years with our Krogen 42, single screw, no thrusters. I like the challenge and am not afraid to say: "No - not going to go in there."
 
We have a DeFever 49’ cpmy, 44+5, single hand frequently, as well as deliever many other configurations power and sail. As has been said planning is key, setting up your lines ahead of time, with the eyes or loops hanging over the lifelines or gunnels, so any one on the pier can drop over a cleat or piling. Make sure your path from the wheel to your dock or spring line is not cluttered. Have docked many times by putting the stern against a piling, leave the engine(s) in gear and tend your lines, using a spring line.
