How to DEPART the DOCK on a YACHT

To start, we will crabwalk. We use the starboard thruster, then split the sticks to move sideways off the dock.

Once we get far enough from the dock, we can start to point into the open.

The throttle’s go back to neutral, but the thruster stays to starboard until we get a good angle to get out.

Put starboard gear into forward to stop the spin, then engage both into forward and drive out.
