Center the wheel to align the boat
parallel with the dock. If the stern
is too far from the dock, shift to
neutral, then put the wheel hard
over to port and then go forward for
a second or two.
Docking Step Three
When the boat is completely into
the dock, stop stern movement by
shifting into forward. Put the wheel
to port to kick the stern over close
to the dock if necessary. Shift into
neutral and tie up the boat.
