Description
Docking and undocking a small craft in close quarters takes years of practice. There are a number of factors to consider when maneuvering a boat into a small docking area such as the effects of current, wind and propeller action. You may never reach boat docking and undocking perfection (very few do) but this book will steer you into the right direction. For example Chapter Two is about Docking Examples and in Chapter Six the author writes about the Human Factors and the part they play when boating. Boat Docking covers a number of situations boaters encounter when docking or undocking – and everyone can learn from this book.
