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

Can't speak for others but I know the feel'n!
I liken it to putting the skis on for the first run of the season; trying to remember what the legs are supposed to do...
