Docking a Boat Means........
DOUG's DOCKING DEFINITION
Confidently and safely bringing your boat into your slip or alongside your dock AND securing it to the dock in any conditions without yelling, swearing, jumping, boat hooks, bionics, dock helpers, guesswork or embarrassment.
Other instructions for handling and docking boats are regurgitated outdated instructions from the original instructions that were written in the 20's, 30's, 40's and 50's. However, power boats have changed drastically since then and no one else has updated the instructions required for the new power systems and boat designs.
Also, most instructions don't include securing your boat to the dock during the docking procedure!

Thank you so much for the lesson. The lessons have been very helpful in making our boating much more enjoyable and I really enjoy the website. Thanks again for your time, great service and very useful information. David Proffitt |
Doug, Thanks for the prompt reply. I received your e-lesson on twin outboards. Great information. I have been a boater since 2002 owning a 26' Center Console - twin outboards. I wish I would have found your website earlier as I have learned some great tips from your lessons. My new boat is a 30' Wellcraft Coastal with twin outboards. Alan R, MA |
Doug Many thanks! I've tried most of these manuevers but have not mastered the correct sequences. I just moved from a single I/O to a twin and seem to be getting worse each time I back into the dock. I could never figure out when to use one or two drives, when to turn the drives vs using one or the other ,etc. This makes so much sense to me and I'll be trying it the rest of the season. Thanks again! Allan Darr, PA |
Just a quick follow up. I read a good portion of the materials before I took my 32’ twin out for the holidays. Great stuff! I have to say that this new twin inboard is far easier to dock than my twin I/O. Nevertheless, you materials made handling either boat easier and understandable. I paid special attention to the part about remaining calm with my crew and not yelling! The lessons kept that from happening. Thanks again. Have a great New Year! David Downs Durango, CO |
