The curriculum covers the key forces affecting boat speed and orientation, what controls the helmsman can use, and how to coordinate engine and rudder during docking. Learners also practice mooring-line handling in slips and alongside docks, the use of spring lines, and essential safety considerations, including docking and undocking procedures with crew duties. It includes confined-space maneuvers, parallel and bow/stern docking variations under different wind conditions, undocking strategies to avoid collisions, and line-heaving methods. The course further includes inboard diesel engine overview, fueling and checks, system inspections, and troubleshooting approaches.",{"@graph":69,"@context":122},[70,84,105],{"@type":71,"itemListElement":72},"BreadcrumbList",[73,77,79,82],{"item":74,"name":75,"@type":76,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":78,"name":9,"@type":76,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":80,"name":20,"@type":76,"position":81},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/exam/",3,{"item":83,"name":65,"@type":76,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/asa-118b-big-boat-docking-docking-and-maneuvering-inboard-diesel-engine-operation-and-troubleshooting/386822/",{"url":83,"name":65,"@type":85,"image":86,"author":91,"headline":65,"publisher":94,"fileFormat":97,"inLanguage":63,"description":67,"dateModified":98,"datePublished":99,"encodingFormat":97,"isAccessibleForFree":100,"interactionStatistic":101},"DigitalDocument",{"url":87,"@type":88,"width":89,"height":90},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/asa-118b-big-boat-docking-docking-and-maneuvering-inboard-diesel-engine-operation-and-troubleshooting/386822.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":92,"@type":93},"Connor ","Person",{"url":74,"name":95,"@type":96},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-11-09","2026-09-24",true,{"@type":102,"interactionType":103,"userInteractionCount":34},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":104},"ViewAction",{"@type":106,"mainEntity":107},"FAQPage",[108,114,118],{"name":109,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":111},"What are the main docking topics covered in ASA 118b Big Boat Docking?","Question",{"text":112,"@type":113},"The course covers docking and maneuvering knowledge, including forces during docking, helmsman control, engine and rudder coordination, mooring-line setup, spring lines, and docking/undocking procedures with crew duties.","Answer",{"name":115,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":116},"What maneuvering and docking skills must students demonstrate?",{"text":117,"@type":113},"Students demonstrate confined-space maneuvers such as a standing turn and a 360-degree turn using rudder position and throttle control, then perform planned undocking and multiple docking variations (parallel and bow/stern into slips) under specified wind conditions.",{"name":119,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":120},"What inboard diesel engine content is included?",{"text":121,"@type":113},"Students receive a thorough inboard diesel engine overview, including checking oil and proper fueling, reviewing electrical/cooling/gear/fuel systems, performing open engine bay inspections, and learning engine troubleshooting steps described as the “4 uh-ohs”.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":83,"og:type":124,"og:title":65,"og:site_name":95,"og:description":67},"article",{"robots":126,"canonical":83},"index,follow",{"doc_id":128,"site_id":62},386822,1790719167,{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":131},{"doc_id":128,"user_id":132,"nickname":92,"user_avatar":133,"doc_module":4,"category_id":19,"category_name":20,"doc_title":65,"doc_description":67,"doc_content":134,"file_id":135,"file_url":136,"file_type":137,"file_size":138,"view_count":34,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":8,"is_downloadable":8,"audit_status":8,"page_count":8,"language":139,"language_code":63,"site_id":62,"html_lang":63,"table_of_contents":140,"faqs":141,"seo_title":142,"seo_description":67,"update_tm":143,"read_time":81,"preview_page_count":4},687207022233,"https://ap-avatar.wpscdn.com/davatar_155a257f0dc6eb9ab79c44ca47cae57d","ASA 118b Big Boat Docking  \nDocking, Maneuvering, Inboard Diesel Engine Operation and Troubleshooting  \nFee: $395 per person  \nEveryone wants to dock like a boss! The most stressful moments chartering are typically in and around the docks. We break the ASA 118 Docking certification into A & B sections. A is for small boats with outboard motors and B is for larger boats with inboard diesels. This important  \nKNOWLEDGE  \n1. List four forces that act on a boat during docking maneuvers, how each force affects the speed and orientation of the boat, and which force is dominant.  \n2. Describe which forces the helmsman can control or use to advantage during docking.  \n3. Describe engine and rudder control as used during docking.  \n4. Describe how to properly secure mooring lines in a slip and alongside a dock.  \n5. Describe the use of spring lines during docking.  \n6. Describe safety considerations during docking.  \n7. Describe docking and undocking procedures including crewmember duties.  \nSKILLS  \n8. Prepare boat and crewmembers for docking and undocking including:  \n• Assessment of boat condition  \n• Dock and fairway configuration  \n• Routes of exit and entry  \n• Water depths  \n• Wind and current direction and strength  \n• Potential hazards  \n• Docking/undocking plan  \n• Crewmember assignments and instruction  \n• Emergency abort options and procedures  \nASA 118 Docking & Manuevering  \nThere are two sections to this certification. 118a is small boats with outboards and 118b is larger boats with inboard diesels  \nBoth sections are required prior to ASA 118 certification.  \n118b Midweek  \nScheduled By Request  \nclass takes place on the water aboard 21-27 foot sailboats with outboard motors with up to 2 students total. ASA 118ais required prior to your first bareboat charter. You will graduate this class a MUCH more confident and safer sailor!  \n9. Maneuver the boat in a confined space to include performing a ‘standing turn’ maneuver, turning the vessel 360 degrees using rudder position and gearshift/throttle control while remaining ina circle not exceeding two boat lengths in diameter.  \n10. Undock boat as planned without collision, grounding, damage or injury.  \n11. Dock parallel to a dock with wind blowing towards dock; demonstrate proper use of spring lines and attachment of lines to the dock.  \n12. Undock from parallel to a dock with wind blowing towards dock; demonstrate proper use of spring lines to avoid other boats moored fore and aft.  \n13. Dock bow into slip with a cross wind; demonstrate proper use of spring lines and attachment of lines in the slip.  \n14. Dock stern into slip with a cross wind; demonstrate proper use of spring lines and attachment of lines in the slip.  \n15. Demonstrate the proper method for heaving a line.  \n16.Construct and demonstrate the use of each of the following:  \n• Round turn and 2 half hitches  \n• Cleat hitch  \n• Bowline  \n15.
