Docking
I'm currently a rack customer and it works out well...but I've seen some people on the transient docks that have me pretty nervous. Why do people use so much throttle when the boat doesn't respond the way they "think" it should?!? It's water people. Things take time to develop. Nice and easy. Use a boat hook if you have to. I watched a guy pulling in next to me yesterday with the wind and I knew it was coming, so I walked up to the bow just in time to push his pulpit off my hull before he throttled up. Watched another guy rub 10 feet of his own hull on the floating dock knuckle.
Bottom line...NICE AND EASY!! If you need to "gun it"...you're doing it wrong!
