Ally docking our boats for the first time | Boating Journey

Docking a boat is one of the most crucial skills for any boater, but let's be honest-it can be a bit nerve-wracking! In this throwback episode of Boating Journey, we're rewinding to when Ally learned how to dock both of our former boats: the Bayliner Ciera 3055 and the Bayliner 4087. Most boat owners, especially couples, tend to have specific roles on board. While I was the primary captain, it was important that Ally could confidently handle the boat, too-because you never know when you'll need a backup at the helm! Learning to dock is all about practice, patience, and communication, and in this episode, you'll see just how much Ally progressed on her journey. ? Watch Ally in action as she: ?? Masters throttle control and steering ?? Navigates wind and current while docking ??
