Not to give FLL any credit, but his "story" reminds me of what happened to my hubby this weekend. He was on the Charles River on his 17' bass tracker, tying a lure on to his line when all of a sudden boom, some lady on a row boat, rowing backwards, slammed into him. He started to laugh becuase it startled him and everyone was ok, but she instead of laughing started to yell at him. Like it was his fault for sitting there trying to fish. She later came back and apologized.
In any case, that plain sucks.
Docking is a tricky thing. I may have damaged a prop here or there driving around hitting shallow wataer, but docking seems to be one thing I am fairly good at. I would never try docking at some of the public docks when crowded though.
To get your NH licence you take a written test...it's not like you have any driving time like a car, and that is where it needs improvement.
