I was in a 20ft Chapparel Villain that day, not your typical big water ride.
I need to dig out my pics and scan them in the computer.

I was in a Chapparel 2350SX that day and we had to go back to Holland after they stopped racing. All I can remember is going down into the bottom of the waves and you could see nothing but water all around you. It was unreal.

I was there in my 21 Wellcraft, I ran behind a big cruiser on the way up, and let him smooth out the big waves for me on the way to GH from Holland. Big Big waves, those where some fun races, I loved the races out of Saugatuck also, my parnets would take my to walk to docks on friday night. The good old days.

I was a 6 year old little tike out on the parents Sea Ray. I don't even remeber that race, I was a little too young, I rember some of later good ones though, I will have to search for some pics myself.

Yeah i love it when people tell me " Oh your on a lake you don't know what big water is" If they were on our Poker run this year that changed some minds for sure.
