Great vid - Watch those saddlebags they will getcha - My wife did something like this riding up to a gas pump one day (well no sailboats were involved but it bounced her to the ground pretty quickly).

Motorcycle journalist crashes on dock, falls 10-plus feet into sailboat

Enjoy,

Ow. I've caught a bag lightly once or twice, but no spills, just a bump. One thing I discovered riding with the Swing Wing pegs extended is to give some room at pylons and curbs. They stick out further than my bags do.

At least the bike didn't land in the sailboat with him.
