WOW, never thought of that, as I dont live at the lake and most of the marinas are protected.
I'll have to keep that in mind if I ever find myself in a position to buy waterfront in retirement.
I can see how it could get real tricky, and cant imagine how much a new boater would struggle with that.
I'm sure there are some tricks of the trade, but I can see how it might take a bit of practice to become comfortable with it.
