I just saw this on "the other site" and thought some of you would enjoy this as well. I'm getting there but am definitely not "there" yet.

 
I love this. I have a long way to go.
 
I still hear the theme song from The Benny Hill Show in my head when I'm trying to dock. So I'm no where near that yet.

By referencing Benny Hill, you are showing your age. Unfortunately, I can relate all to well.
 
Funny! Glad to see not everyone docks perfectly!
 
@Ronnie ......... That video of yours was DA BOMB .........

But Barbie saw it and walked out sayin' "
HEY .... Nothin' special .......... All that guy in the video did was copy your techniques, Mikey."

LOL ! That's why I love her so !
 
I love it when we dock and everything goes just right and the boat is tied up with a lot of people all over the place and me and my wife and all three kids stop and just stare at each assigned position for like 30 seconds waiting for the boat to start sinking or something to explode... then everyone looks at each like... nothing happened.. we........ we don't know what to do next!.. lol
 
How'd you like to pull your boat out at this ramp?

LOL....Guide Ons would have saved half those folks. I can't imagine not having them...but we usually have some wind to compete with also.

The guy at the beginning with the older jetboat needed Thrust Vectors BIG TIME.
 
That was crazy @Glassman Loved how the crowd would cheer when the "drunks" would come to life.

I don't understand what was happening with the LS2000 and that section belonged under the "drunk people" part. I have fins but I still think the boat is very easy to steer.
 
Both awesome vids. I'm not too bad at docking but I'm not sure I'm ready for the pressure of Redneck Entertainment quite yet! That kind of crowd is enough to rattle anyone!

The guy is obviously not very experienced at it....classis oversterring.
