[quote=Geo. Newbern]So what do you call it when you dock the boat and get one leg over the gunnel and your foot on the dock, but can't for the life of yourself lift the other leg to complete disembarking? A handhold takes care of the problem, but there usually isn't one...Geo

Dock side at the Kodiak Island Harbor nobody has a disembarking problem as there are monstrous sea lions swimming about, important to NOT go in the water--it's all about Motivation!
