August 5th, 2018 The use of the stern webbing reel is ubiquitous in Sweden and Finland, either shackled to a kedge anchor while going bows-to on a remote island, or with a clip attachment to hold your stern steady while going bows-in at a marina (gasthamn). But since it’s always better to show than tell, here’s an example par excellence I witnessed at Grisslehamn on August 5th with a two-man German crew on a gorgeous 1972 Camper & Nicholsons. Enjoy the calm, orderly docking manuever….and the boat.
