How will a boat respond when you are at the helm? The worst place to discover the boats quirks is in a tight fairway of a crowded marina! Herby goes over the steps you need to take to discover how the boat will respond to various inputs and how to plan your maneuvers accordingly.

If you have any projects, be sure to use our link for Totalboat: https://www.Totalboat.com/riggingdoctor . It's the stuff we use on our own boat and it helps out the channel :-)
