What I can't figure out is the number of times I've seen boats - power or sail - with couples where the sturdy looking guy is at the helm, and the diminutive woman is trying to fend off the bow. Uh, which task takes strength and which takes finesse?
Actually, we only consider it 'good' docking if it requires no strength at all, just hand the lines to someone on the dock after we've brought the boat to a complete stop. But why is it that, when you do it perfectly, there's never anyone there to see it?
