When docking with a current pushing you toward the dock, approach at a slight angle to the current to maintain control. Use reverse thrust to slow your forward momentum as you near the dock, allowing for a gentle and controlled landing. Keep an eye on your surroundings and be ready to adjust your position with small throttle adjustments or rudder movements. Finally, secure the boat quickly to prevent being pushed against the dock.
