Well, if confession is good for the soul, here's mine.

I was coming out of the channel at Isles Yacht Club, Punta Gorda into Charlotte Harbor. The boat was struggling to get on plane. It would only do 15 knots. So, I pushed both throttles to wide open. Didn't help. I looked down the starboard tach read O. I had failed to start the starboard engine. The good new is the boat will do 15 knots on one engine. I was a little embarrassed to say the least. I just said, "Alright folks let's just start over.
