Learn how to dock a twin outboard powerboat in a single slip when the wind is pushing you off the dock. This video breaks down a controlled docking approach using low idle, neutral, reverse, and split-stick engine control to manage momentum into the slip. We cover how to use the starboard engine in forward, the port engine in reverse, and small adjustments between reverse and neutral to bring the boat in slowly and safely. #boat #boating #powerboat #centerconsoles

We caught up with Team Loustic SuperSonic waiting out the weather at the John Wayne Marina. They told us all about their hull and deck coming apart. The deck is attached with pop rivets and many of them failed along one side for about two meters of the seam—when they realized the boat was acting sluggish, they looked inside to see at certain tacks, waves of water coming in filling the boat with about 100 gallos of water. They have since repaired it quite nicely and they're drying off all their gear, ready to go on. The boat otherwise handled really well.
