The second video was filmed at the 2014 Masters National Regatta in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and provides some good examples of boats docking on the Grand River:

It is our goal to keep all boats docking safely and efficiently throughout the regatta.  Help us help you by reviewing these materials. If you have questions, please speak with a dockmaster at the coaches/coxswain meeting, or feel free to email us.
