Single-engined, inboard/outdrive boats are acknowledged to be the most difficult type of boat to dock in reverse, stern-first, in a marina berth.
Here are a few ideas which might make it less of a challenge. We use the low-speed "steer - then gear" method, plus a piece of ribbon, a non-electronic Rulan helm indicator and a simple length of rope. ..........Oh yes, and we take our time.
No boat was harmed in the making of this video.
