Bester Tipp vom Boots-Profi. Boot rückwärts in die Box einfahren. 2 Motoren (Außenbord und Welle)

Reversing a boat into a berth in the harbor with two engines is a challenge many people shy away from. It's not easy, and not all harbors have ideal conditions. We'll give you a few valuable tips on what to keep in mind when reversing into the berth. This maneuver really needs to be practiced thoroughly beforehand. Ideally, it's best to do it on a lake or in a bay. You should get to know your boat well, how it reacts on the water, and how sluggish it is. Take your time to really practice this maneuver. Then reversing into the berth in the harbor will soon be no problem. Important: You are working ONLY with the two engines. The rudder is in the center, meaning the engines are pointing straight, and you steer exclusively with the throttle levers. Have fun learning! Be sure to watch this video:    • Rückwärtsfahren vom Boots-Profi erklärt. S...   Here we explain why your boat never reverses straight.
