You named some of the reason's we purchased a Triumph.

We have NOT had the Admiral do too much. The Admiral is there to enjoy, not work.

Both my son and I have hit docks way to hard. On his last break from college we practiced docking as slow as possible. Our son ended up liking this approach a lot better, and our guests will like it better also. Our guests, like many, sometimes want to put themselves in harms way to save the boat from damage. Very slow no hard bump docking helps solve that problem. Now I tell our guests in advance that I am practicing at how slowly we can dock the boat. That seems to help keep them from getting into harms way.
