Master boating educator Bob Sweet takes the mystery out of boat handling and show you how to perform every manoeuvre smoothly and effectively. Understand the unique characteristics of planing and displacement hulls, single and dual engines, and outboard, inboard, jet, and stern drives, and make your boat do what you want it to do.
You’ll learn how to:

  • Approach and leave a dock or slip no matter what the direction and strength of wind or current.
  • Manoeuvre at slow speeds in tight quarters and at high speeds on open water.
  • Learn the secrets of launching and retrieving from ramps.
  • Use trim tabs and engine tilt for comfort, economy and speed.
  • Find out what it takes to anchor effectively.
  • Handle your boat safely in strong winds, high waves, challenging inlets, and sudden storms
