the latter is how i used to pull up in my 'speedboat' aged 15. full throttle, opposite lock to pull thd stern in. no margin for error or engine failure tho'.

So that's why she's called "Hornblower"...

I had something similar. I rebuilt a 15 ft speedboat boat and put the steering back together. On the water I found I had put the back of the steering wheel on upside down. Left was right, right was left.

No bother I will remember.

No i wont!

Ended up heading for the bank, stuffed it in reverse and by pure chance and nil skill it turned sideways and stopped in a perfect parking position.

Not one to push my luck any further I took it back the trailer and fixed it in my garage!

I have a feeling it was the same day I put the boat in without the bung. Happy days!
