Public dock etiquette 2015

[pontoonbarge]

I keep practicing, but when I'm docking around all the beautiful boats... it's easy to get nervous!!

It's awesome to see the folks who can whiz right into the tightest space! Always makes me grin... I think some folks could flip their boat through the air and have it land in the perfect spot at a dock, lines would wrap themselves...

As for me, it's with going slow, and some trepidation that I get tied off... I think each year I get a little better... until there's a breeze I don't expect...

But hey - we're on the water! a few extra minutes means a few extra minutes in our boats...

As for help -- it's the greatest thing when someone reaches out a hand to help guide the boat when I'm struggling. Always appreciated.

Trailering...... That always has potential to go one way or another. Note to self... did I put in the plug? Geez I think so, but....

Happy summer 2015 everyone!
