Answer:

Bow Line

Explanation:

If the wind or current is pushing your boat away from the dock, bow line should be secured first.

1- We should cast off the bow and stern lines.

2-With the help of an oar or boat hook, keep the boat clear of the dock.

3-Leave the boat on its own for sometime and let the wind or current carry the boat away from the dock.
