I had a good dad but we were too poor to ever have a boat of our own. Now that I’m grown, wife and kids are wanting me to buy a ski boat. I know I’ll be terrible at it my first few times and it’s things like this that make me nervous as hell.

Practice Practice backing up somewhere like an empty lot. As long as you aren't terribly slow backing down you'll be ok.

You will get yelled at if you're prepping your boat in the lane. Get ready in the proper area.

You will get yelled at if you if pull out and put gear away in the lane. Put your gear away in the proper area.

If dock space is small get parked and get fired up and away from the dock and do anything else while in neutral away from the dock.

Teach your people how to walk the boat down as far as possible and tie up and get the motor fired up so they are ready when you show up after parking.

Do all that and you'll be ok.

Don't and someone like me will yell at you.

Good luck.
