To follow up my previous video, I’ll show you a real life example of the effect of prop walk and prop wash to the boat movement when there is no steerage and in a tight space. Understanding the prop walk and prop wash specifically to your own boat is obviously very important in order to achieve precise boat maneuver in tight docking and undocking. Prop walk varies hugely in boats and can be used to your advantage. But sometimes, it just works against you like the following situation when I need to make a standing turn counter-clock wise in a fairway only about 1 and a quarter of the boat length with prop walk to the port side.
