I did one similar to the one on Golden Pond...
doing the splits between a row boat and the dock.
Fortunately managed to remove my wallet, keys,
and watch before the inevitable happened.

I also fell off a dock after having extracted
the mast on my windrider... I backed up, and
backed up, and fell off the dock. Landed between
several large rocks in about 3 feet of water...

Why are you climbing on at the stern... can't
you get on/off on the sides?

Climbing on board ECHO over the stern has
been a bit of a challenge. I have the knack for
it, but others, newbies, have had problems.
