We were lucky enough to visit Polperro and overnight in our 45' sailing boat earlier this year. Truly a magical place - and your mooring technique was exactly the same as ours. Sent my son out in the dinghy! You need very long lines to double up though. In settled weather one of the best places in Cornwall. The pub you were in isn't too bad either....

That was chaotic? You should come and learn real chaos with some of the shenanigans we get up to.

Try the stern line first then motor forward and pick up the bow bouyadjusting your position from onboard

The conventional way of picking up fore and aft moorings is to pick up one buoy or pile and attach to stern on a long line, then motor up to the other buoy and attach to bow. Centre the boat and put the kettle on, as Tom cunliffe would say. Lots of books describe the technique under "pile mooring", which used to be the norm. Those plastic line threaders are genius.

You need to be sponsored by the English Tourist Board. The fabulous amount of publicity you bring to the south coast must be worth millions in tourism.

I was on a trot mooring in the Dart for 9 years, easier with a lazy line between the mooring lines, but any method of mooring to the buoys without the benefit of the lazy line is fine just so long as it works for you. I also scrubbed off our dive boat in the Exe last week. Been on a mooring for about 4 months without being anti fouled. The whole hull was carpeted in small mussels which covered the barnacles underneath. I use a plastic ice scraper for car windscreens, and it was very satisfying having long sheets of mussels with barnacles attached on the under side come off, leaving the hull completely clean. 27’ boat including prop and rudder cleaned off in an hour without scuba gear, just a mask and gloves.
Love your videos, I’ve anchored in most of the same spots over the years.

We visited Belle Ile on the coast off Brittany and there you more fore and aft off the harbour wall using extremely long ropes if you are around 40 feet long because the rear buoy is positioned to account for 50 foot plus boats. What makes it really fun is that you are packed into a little harbour like sardines.
