      @@TheBigDanShow in all honesty though, I owned a sweet little 16', 1971 (don't remember the name of it), fiberglass boat with a 90hp outboard on it...and because i;
      1) never drove a boat onto a boat trailer before owning a boat
      2) feared crunching the hull or doing something stupid and hurting the boat because of number 1
      ...I was the guy getting out of the boat and pulling it onto the trailer.
      And because the engine never ran right, I sold it back to the guy I bought it from. I was told that the 90hp engine was powerful enough to flip that boat over but it never performed like that for me. I sold it back, told him if he gets it fixed then I'd buy it back because I was under the impression I was buying a turnkey boat.
      That thing would constantly leave me and sometimes my daughter and I stranded in the middle of Lake Washington because it would shut off and not restart..or if I turned it off it didn't like to restart. It screwed me st the boat launch too for 90 minutes trying to get it running. I stayed out of the way as much as possible but that boat launch was in a ritzy neighborhood and was always super busy.

    The problem I keep seeing with new boaters is they buy a big boat having no experience with any kind of boat . Years ago it seemed most people would start out with smaller boats as kids or teens and work up to progressively bigger boats as they could afford it gaining valuable experience along the way . I had an older coworker who decided he was going to get a boat and start boating . I suggested he take the Coast Guard boating course which he scoffed at . He was driving at speed and accidentally discovered what the transom trim tab controls did and scared the heck out of him when his boat hooked abruptly to the right .

    A skilled captain should be able to slowly and in a controlled manner turn his boat around 360 in not much more than the length of his/her vessel. It takes practice but with light throttle and proper application of rudder it isn’t difficult with minimal drift/set even on a single screw vessel.
