You mean leave the slip? For us it's back out, pivot the boat 90 degrees with opposed thrust and rudder and we're gone.

No Marin. Embarking is getting on...and disembark is...need I go on...but you knew that...

Whether we are embarking or disembarking, as long as we are tied "starboard to" the operation is a very simple one. From the swim platform or the starboard side door, I can't emphasize enough how terribly convenient this is for us older folks. Now, if they would have put an escalator in instead of the ladder to the fly bridge, it would have been perfect!
