Hi Rita,

I had the opportunity to join a Bareboat crew out of BVI last year (Road town, Tortola) using a Moorings 43.1 Beneteau.  It was my turn to bring the boat back in as captain and I had to back it into a very tight slip.  I had not done this yet with the boat.  Might I add next to me was this very expensive looking sailboat.  I remembered from Don's class how to back the sailboat into the slip and I did so with remarkable ease and precision without having to make any adjustments.  The guy on the big boat was watching me like a hawk but I was able to let out a sigh of relief (without him seeing me!) once the lines were in place.

Thank goodness for the class.

-Carl
