I had such a great lesson with Captain Dennis last week. He is so knowledgeable and incredibly patient. We have a very challenging slip to get into, he worked with me for hours teaching me various strategies to use when pulling into our lift.
We also spent some time on docking and handling the boat in tight situations. I feel so much more confident after just one lesson with him. I have already booked a second one for next week and am looking forward to becoming more proficient at handling our boat!
