Be More Like Tiger Woods!
Tiger Woods 'sees' his shots before he plays them. He visualises the club striking the ball as he follows through his swing and pictures the ball as it flies towards the pin. Likewise you can mentally dock the boat a few times before approaching the berth. 'See' yourself rounding up in front of the berth before backing in. Visualise yourself giving a burst astern on one engine before returning the controls to neutral. See yourself squaring up with the bow thruster and backing in with ease. If you are coming alongside, visualise yourself approaching the dock at a 45 degree angle, slowly and with control and slowing down to a stop exactly where you need to be.
Play the process over a few times in your mind and you will 100% see an improvement in docking any boat, anytime and anywhere !
Do you visualize docking your boat before you arrive at the marina?
