This is a specific video! If you want see how they handle a regular boat in regular places, for wakes, tubing and stuff like that on a lake or river this isn't it.
This wasn't really what I wanted, this stuff is pretty much something you're gonna learn from experience, cause you're going slow and there are places to learn to dock that aren't around other boats, I learned that and did it the first time out. I wanted to see a video where they are out on the water, not in an ocean just a lake and handling wakes, from different size boats, and what if wakes are from all sides, handling your boat in a smaller area, and boats going past you fast, how to anchor in lakes and rivers, Safe handling tips and just basically beginner stuff, no one is gonna buy their first boat unexperienced and hit the ocean. So while the instruction was good its not really that helpful, totally what your not looking for, unless you want to watch a guy go over 55 things about how to dock, and never leaves the dock.
I found this program to be a bit to compressed to be really useful. It is difficult to mix boat handling for inboards and outboards, single and twin in one program, especially in segments that were so short.
