As a newbie to sailing, I gotta say that this was excellent information. I was taught to use OXOs on the dock cleats, but I like the idea of the bowline, especially through the centre and then around the legs. That seems very solid and secure.

Just odd and wrong in so many ways

You assume the view isn`t a novice …. OXO? Bowlines? Types of knot? … not much help for a beginner.

I prefer bowlines or spliced loops on the boat cleats, and OXO on the pontoon cleats - that's how you would generally be tying up if short handed. It's also more practical to depart that way if shorthanded, otherwise you need 2 crew to release one line as loop around the pontoon cleats will be under load. That probably happens more of the time than having someone to take lines on arrival / release lines lines on departure from a pontoon.

You could also do a video on attaching fenders to the boat - you can see at https://youtu.be/6Mz9mAwVvgE?t=73 that the fender is attached to the top guard wire, is under load and stretching the guard wire. Not what the guard wires are there for! It should be tied off at the base of a stanchion - much stronger.

I actually prefer to have the free end on the dock. This way the line lengths can be adjusted from the dock. Could you say something about the diameter of the nylon lines for the size/weight of the boat?

So you broke your own rule on the spring lines. They cannot be released from the boat under load. Can you explain how they should be done, please?

Another one downside of using a spliced loop is that you can't release the mooring line if two boats use the same cleat.
Personally, I prefer the bowline for a long stay on cleats. But the round turn and two half hitches easier to release from pontoon side.
On the Baltic sea that is also popular using big carabiners with mooring line compensators for mooring to cleats and rings.

That showing a bowline loosely draped over the cleat should have been edited out. You fixed it later in the video, but you never should have shown that in the first place. You also didn't show tying to poles which is very common in the Caribbean.

No snubbers?
