I really don't know what are you talking about with the sailboat,
because I do know many sailboters who do back into the slip, and these
are 36' plus sailboats who are backing into the slip, so I think I am
not following your logic. It definitely seemed to me that they are
using their rudder to maneuver their boat.

Hopefully this thread can become another one of those long threads that
go on forever.


Hehehe ...

whatever works for you... and however you think it works .... do it.

But ... I can guarantee that sailboaters are not steering their boat
backwards using the rudder.

Google up... "Back and Fill"
