If you own a singleengine boat and need to build your confidence in docking, this is a fantastic maneuver to practice in your marina. The #1 mistake I see out on the water when docking your boat is going too slow in your approach. Going too slow will give you less power and steering control. Try it to increase your confidence to help become a boat docking pro.

As I always say, don't end up on YouTube for the wrong reasons! AKA on a Docking Fails channel...

P.S. If you are really struggling with docking, I provide expert coaching specialized in this area to make you feel more confident, safe so you can actually have fun on your boat. To inquire, please reach out to me via my website: www.RoyalNavyYachtmaster.com
