Exactly.

When docking, once a line is on a cleat there are so many options.
I often single hand in rough weather as my wife doesn't appreciate it as much as I do.
I have one spring line than is so salted up and stiff that it can reach out about 10 feet to hook a cleat. I don't wash it. It's my go-to line on blowy days. Once I'm hooked the worry is over.
