Could this be there is a gay skipper on board?
But then watching a bull attempting to mount a cow comes to mind with this.
But in reality how do two ships get so up close and personal?

Another video. The cruise liner with its own stuck in the butt of the other one was berthed in Cozumel whilst the one now suffering from a bad case of piles was manouevering into berth on the other side of the pier. The aft mooring gang would have had a close up of the procedure!!
