Thanks, but I've moved forward with just the practice method. I was bit worried the first few times, but now I have to slow myself because I'm feeling too confident some times.

Purchased a Maxum, twin screw and no thrusters. Read a lot and practiced a lot. While I'm sure it would be nice in windy weather, so far I'm holding my own with out them.
