my wife drives and docks better than many. When there used to be speed runs , guys would ask her to take there boat through the gun. I would stand on shore and hope to hell she got it back in one piece. the boat that is.

my wife can drive all 3 of our boats.
she is not a big fan of docking, but as long as I keep my mouth shut, she does a fine job.
she mainly drives the cig and navigates the bay , day or night without any problem

I recently let my girlfriend start to drive the boat. She likes it but doesnt seem to give way to other boats with the right of way. Plus, she isnt too good at trimming the boat or throttling.
But she doesnt drink and I get absolutly shat faced most the time so its good to let her drive. Also, after I herniated a disk in my back, I figured she should know how to drive in the event that happened again on the water.

I am teaching mine slowly. She thinks she is ready to take the boat out for the weekend with the girls, I think otherwise. I have her drive the truck nearly everytime out now and is doing well at that though.
