If you were in something with prop reversing, like a Super Otter, you might be able to use that little strip of land behind the dock. It would be a bit tight though. Nice Doug. :)

Cool shot. 8-)

But no one suggested the "obvious"............swing around for an approach behind the dock building.

Drop the back wheels into the water a little just before shore to bleed off some airspeed, then stand on the toes. :D

Of course you may 'tap' the building on the right. ::)

You didn't mention a spare prop did ya?

I think that is about the same length as the one on Chuck's new island, maybe a tad longer. ::)
