    How Not to Dock

    Amen to that!!! He needs to learn to do it without the thruster, then use the thruster when winds or current are bad. Too many of us rely on conveniences that are not necessary and lead to bad habits.

    Proud (and humbled) new Sea Ray owner

    Get a set of muffs, less than 10 at most Wally worlds, hook to garden hose and try and start it. I would change the oil first also, just in case. I think most of us have forgotten the plug in our lives. Luckily I wasn't off the trailer when I realized I did it so not too much water...
