Steps. 1  1. Study the methods of how to tie up a boat. 2  2. Prepare the proper rope (or line) and use stern lines to secure the stern, spring lines to control movement fore-and-aft, fender ties to tie up the boat fenders and the correct bow and dock ties to fit the type of dock you will be using.
Create a Y by tying a bowline in the end of the tow line, and then tie two other lengths of line to the loop. Attach the tag ends of the Y to each D-ring so that the pulling load is evenly distributed. Create a Y at the other end of the tow line and attach it to the stern of your boat. You can slip a float over the line to help keep the line, your âhawser,â clear of the propellers. Make sure the dinghy rides in the dead center of the V-wake behind your boat and is sitting on the back of one of your wakeâs waves.
