Newbies ?

First timers ?

How bout seasoned veterans !

We launched two weeks ago and on that Sunday as I was approaching the Gas dock, which had two other vessels tied off, you would think that the driver of this boat (me) had NEVER docked before in his life.

What a TOTAL disaster as my "feel" for the boat had somehow disappeared over the winter months ....I thought this was suppose to be like "riding a bike" - you never forget!

Talk about feeling like a moron as I struggled to continually readjust while the polite gas dock attendants simply smiled (making it even more embarrassing) as I was too far out for their assistance.

Point is .... it's not just the "Newbies" ... so be careful making judgments
