I actually had to do this single handed today when I relocated our boat from its summer to winter slip. As long as wind and current is not an issue its very doable. I was able to untie get on board pull out and pull into new slip and tie her up by myself with no issue. All stern in. once again a bit of wind or current could make you doubt yourself but doing this a few times you will get a good sense of your pivot point and how quickly she responds to your inputs. I would suggest getting used to putting your back to the bow and handling the shifters behind you.It takes away the few second it takes your brain to think in reverse if you're facing the bow. This works well for me when docking stern in.
