Real inboarders have single screw boats.

And, after a few mishaps, a stern thruster.

Naw. I can't recall one inboard berthed at my father's marina that was
other than a single screw, and this included boats from about 18' to well
over 40'. All those boat owners seemed to be able to handle their pleasure
craft properly. What it takes is...practice.

I won't deny the value of thrusters, though, bow or stern. They make life
a lot easier.+


I would trade a single screw with a single IO anyday. A single IO has to
be the worst in regards to close quarter maneuverability.
