The information you have given me is exactly the kind of thing I need. That 'stand backwards' trick is priceless by itself! I truly appreciate the information.I can't wait to get out on the water and work on it. I'm sure it'll make an amazing difference.

 That one little tidbit, though I've not even tried it out yet, will undoubtedly save me lots of aggravation, lots of discomfort, and lead to a far safer, more controlled, more predictable, and more successful set of docking procedures. The rest of the information you've given me is gravy.

Again, I can't thank you enough for taking the time to help me.

"With my 50 years of boating experience, I thought that I knew everything about 'buying a boat' until I read this book. What an 'eye opener'! Thanks Doug, for sharing your knowledge to make me an informed buyer and save me money for my retirement."
"A $100,000 repair bill and 2 years of stress could have been avoided had I read Doug's book. I now realize that all marine surveyors and boat brokers are NOT all equal and are NOT all competent. My advice: buy the book, do your homework, be an informed buyer."

Thank you Brenda and Doug.

With your help docking my Twin Inboard, it has already taken my stress level down by 75% and I now feel more confident.

I did very well docking my Twin I/O's. I think its just the size of this boat that had me nervous but after a few practice runs I should be docking like a pro.

Thanks for all your help and your books.

Thanks Bill T, ON
