HOW TO MANEUVRE A SHAFT-DRIVE BOAT

One of the joys of boating is the wide variety of different craft on offer. Whereas the vast majority of cars have four wheels and one engine and therefore drive in roughly the same way, boats are much more varied in terms of size, style, hull design and means of propulsion. As a result they tend to handle very differently too, so making the switch from something like a single-engined planing sports-boat to a twin-engined semi-displacement cruiser requires a certain amount of readjustment from the skipper too. So how do you go about doing that? For me, having a clear understanding of what’s happening when and why is vital to grasping what steering and throttle inputs are needed.
