No experience for sure....but I am guessing that if you had a wind off the dock situation, I would back into the dock stern to and then use the outboard prop to put the bow on the dock with a spring to the stern cleat.

That is at home dock which is an end tie in Blaine. Every where else I expect she will be anchored as slips to fit her will be rare indeed.
12000 liter fuel capacity means for me, likely a fuel dock every couple of years! I will pick a good day.....
