Only other time I've seen that was from a 15 year old, whose family runs the Sportsmen's Inn at Killarney, ON. Would be a great dock trick!
 
The dock guy at Roland Martin's marina at Clewiston FL. does the bow and stern line like that in about 10 seconds
 
Never saw anything like it .
 
One of the dock guys at Harbourtown (Hilton Head, SC) can do this also - makes docking a snap.
 
Maynard, is "Littleman" still at Roland's? I had heard that he left. What a character. Anything you might need he could pull out from behind his tiki hut. A single friend of ours traveling with us marveled at the things he could produce and jokingly ask him if he had a woman back there. Littleman reached up to the top of the hut, pulled something down, and we here a compressor running. Out he pops with a blow up doll! He made our stay a blast.
 
That's the guy. I haven't been there for 3 years so I don't know if he is still there.
 
Most of the fuel dock monkeys in SoCal do that all the time. And they miss a lot.

Little Man was still there in May of 2013 when we went through there. Hasn't changed a bit, quite the character!
