Well, getting out of the marina under motor power is a necessary skill
for people who keep their boats in marinas. Likewise, effectively
trailering a boat is a necessary skill for those who keep their boats
on trailers (and backing up a trailer is one of the more difficult
skills one has to master as a trailer sailor, IMHO).

But let's not confuse either with actually sailing. They're just
necessary chores that make sailing possible. Otherwise, you might
think you're sailing when you're only pumping out the head...
