I made the mistake of locking her in the forward stateroom so she would not be underfoot as we pulled away from the dock.
Our usual trick is to keep the dog contained in the helm area, and let him drag a short leash around from his harness. Once I head for the helm, I take him with me and sit on the leash so he stays next to me and out of the way until the admiral is done with lines, fenders, etc. Same thing coming into the dock, I keep him next to me until I have to leave the helm (at which point he's still blocked from getting out onto the side decks and being in the way).
