The slip is about 15 feet wide, but the boat is nearly 10.
Seems tighter when she lost steerage and started to fall off to st'bd.
I jammed reverse and backed away (just barely), and "went around" for
another pass.

The problem was that I let her get too slow before turning into the slip
and - just stopped (you got the in-to-the-wind part right on)

Ok.. my boat's beam is 10'. The slip is 11'. :-)



That ought to be easy.

Just line her up - and push real hard!
