Docking Lessons

Sharon had her first docking lesson today. Our friend Ivan was kind enough to spend time with us to do this. He will be back tomorrow for lesson number 2. She docked the boat eight times today. It is difficult for a husband to teach a wife something like that and still have a place to sleep that night so I appreciate Ivan's help. Things are going great. She backed the boat out of the slip and then backed it all the way down the fairway and turned around just before leaving the marina. Our goal is for her to be totally comfortable handling the boat and for me to handle the lines. This just makes the most sense as sometimes the line handler needs to be strong and she is after all a girl (I wouldn't have married her if she wasn't).

Sharon and Ivan.
