Only done by people who can't back their boat into a slip.

Oh! That is mean spirited.

Kinda like saying "Bow Thrusters are to compensate for poor boat handling

They aren't? ;-)

Personally, we prefer bow in for privacy, but we backed in for a couple

practice almost made it easy, but our boat handles a little easier than
most.
