Nort, I can always count on you for the quick comment!!

Hey, I have to say first off that even though you can't really see it in the pic, the seas were easily 4-5's (ask anyone one of the 25 boats that ran it) and we were running directly into them for the helicopter. I had the tabs down past neutral and the drives bumped off of 0. We were barrying the nose it seemed for the most part for most of the run until we came off one swell, launched and did the old - down the back side and right into another like a ramp. We were only running about 60-65. It just lined up right (or wrong )

We came down pretty hard but nothing that we had to stop for The guy in the back behind my wife had never been on anytype of offshore boat in his life!

All I know is I wanted a good picture to frame for the wall during that run. I guess I got it

Thanks for the pic Chris...You guys did a great job on the shoot.
