Is the wind blowing toward the dock, or away from it? Whichever way you do this, make sure your life jackets are on, and have a member of your crew ready to get out of the boat and tie your boat up. If the wind's blowing toward the dock, this is really easy: pull up parallel to the dock and let the wind blow you up against it. Then have your crew person jump out and tie up. If it's blowing away from the dock, this is a little trickier but still fairly easy. Approach the dock into the wind at about a 20-degree angle. Put your crew member on the bow. Let the bow touch the dock; when it does, your crew member gets onto the dock and ties off. (Please don't tie off so tightly the boat can't turn.) You then steer the stern into the dock and tie off.

To tie up a boat, start by securing a fender to protect the boat from rubbing against the dock. Use a strong rope, called a dock line, and create a bowline knot for a secure loop at one end. Attach this loop to a cleat on the dock, then wrap the line around the cleat in a figure-eight pattern, securing it with a half hitch to ensure it stays tight. Finally, adjust the tension to keep the boat stable without excessive movement.
It's usually called a cleat, generally a horn cleat.
