When the wind blows towards the dock I get nervous going out because I've almost hit the boat a few times, but the wind mostly blows toward the dock, so..
I have no real place to land, to the left are rocks and the right is our boat and behind that is neighbors boats and more rocks. I tried to go into irons but a couple times the wind caught the sail and ripped me sideways with the mast slamming into the water so I don't want to do that. I've tried lowering the sail before coming in, which sometimes works but then I have to row in and lowering the sail while moving also isn't fun.
Any ideas?
