Did your wife know you were "on coming" with her boat? :drink: So I have a response being that the beak does the magic on the head on/on coming seas. |

Or, since I'm being kind, are you merely indulging in hyperbole for the sake of magnifying your self-perception? Not that there's anything wrong with your lust for hyperbole, since you apparently live in the grimmest place most of us can imagine: the dull, boring Midwest :D :D :D |

The great lakes have some of the meanest waters around (when it's windy). This is due to the amplitude and frequency of the waves. They get some stiff north and northwesterly winds in the fall and winter from the clippers and low pressures! In one discovery show there was a tanker that was in some very rough seas and two waves under the boat, bow and stern. This caused the ship to break in half and sink to the bottom. Other places like Lake George and Lake Champlain, the wind funnels down the mountains and it gets really bad! When I was young my family had to spend a couple extra nights because it was too rough to go home on Champlain. |
