CAPTAIN MORTIFIEDDock it · Run it · Don't embarrass me
Ten jobs: dock her in the marina, then run the inlet. Wind, tide, swell on the bar, and First Mate Mortified judging every bump.

How to drive
Shift + throttle lever (left). Push up for forward, pull down for reverse. The middle is neutral. Just past neutral each way is idle in gear (you'll feel it click). Push further for throttle.
The lever stays where you leave it, like a real binnacle. Tap the big N for neutral. (Settings can make it spring back to idle instead.)
Wheel (right). Drag it around. Let go and it centers. The gold bar shows where the engine is pointed. It takes a moment to swing, like real hydraulics.
Docking is done at idle. Bump into gear, then neutral, and let her glide. The wheel still steers a little while you glide in neutral (the lower unit acts like a rudder). Reverse with the wheel over walks the stern sideways.
Wind pushes the bow off. Tide carries the whole boat. Watch the arrows up top, the ripples and the floating weed.
Get her in the slip, stopped and lined up, then hit TIE UP!
The view turns with the boat: the bow always points up the screen, so left is left. Backing in, the slip comes up at the bottom of the screen. Settings can switch to North up.
CAM button: Dock, Zoom and High. The slider on the right zooms any view in and out. In Zoom it runs from your view at the helm all the way out behind the boat.
