Default On inboards and outboards..

Well, the afternoon went really well. Learned a lot and can say that
in my opinion, handing a twin outboard boat is considerably easier
than manuevering a twin inboard diesel boat.



Regardless of the fact that an inboard is powered by diesel or
gas..........the pivot point is closer to the center of the boat with
inboards vs. outboards which would result in a tighter turning radius with
inboards with the twin inboards literally capable of turning on a dime.

Why was your experience today to the contrary?
