Planning, planning, planning, and remember you have no brakes! Was it good fun?
Engine.
It was brilliant fun. I have driven it before, but went today to help him out with the locks as it's bloody difficult on your own.

He he - I steer ours with my backside - leaves the hands free for g&t... Only kidding, dry boat if underway, but it's much more relaxed than behind the steering wheel of the car, until it comes to parking...

Haha, it is a very relaxed driving.
Parking the thing is another beast altogether.

My method of parking is push the nose into the bank, then just ram the tiller fully to the left and full power.
Perhaps not smooth, but works every time!

That method is fine, but try it with low power, come in smooth with the front and let the back slide in.
