Will that keep DNR/CG off the waters so you boys aren't busted up there for too loud of an exhaust? :p

Been hearing and reading it's getting really brutual in GH.

CigDaze 09-06-2007 12:43 PM

Ours too...the next six months is the best boating in FL.
Not to mention it's when the wind starts kicking up.
:cool:

We absolutely love her!!! We've been having some decent water around here. Saturday was kicking pretty good out of the NE with 2 to 3's easy, some 4's and Tuesday afternoon we were out in some water we would have never taken out Stinger out in.

The boat has been a head turner. We are surprisingly pleased.

Wally 09-06-2007 03:27 PM

think you have it good? check out the forcast for Chicago for Tomorrow!


Friday
South gales to 35 knots veering southwest in the afternoon...then becoming west toward evening. Showers and thunderstorms likely in the morning...mainly in the morning. Waves building to 10 to 14 feet. :eek:

Wally 09-06-2007 03:28 PM

ooppss...never mind that was the open water forcast....near chicago they call for 4-6 footers! :cool:

Queenie 09-06-2007 03:29 PM

Were due for 3 to 5's Friday night.

sommerfliesby 09-06-2007 04:28 PM

Damn...for once a crap weekend when I'm NOT planning to go out! Fingers crossed for the Chicago Powerboat Club Beach Party next weekend...we do NOT need big waves when we're anchoring off Boater's Beach...only for the Poker Run!

PARADOX 09-06-2007 07:35 PM

Looks calm OffshoreW

I broke 3 sringers on that damn lake. But I have to admit, it was during a storm.
You can survive the Michigan. you can handle anything else.

:cool-smiley-027:

I crack up when "some" in Florida complaines about 4' swells.

I need a bigger boat. :greenchainsaw:

Rob had a conversation with Bob Saccenti back in July and when he mentioned that we boated on Lake Erie, he said to Rob "you guys can keep those f'ing lilly ponds, I'll boat on the ocean any day over the Great Lakes.

I guess he had a bad accident on Lake Ontario years aog and has hated them since.

Can't imagine boating in gale winds...no thanks...

We stay at the dock when it gets like that; http://www.lucidideefastboats.com/im...06_Ernesto.wmv

That video is amazing! We love to watch the water when it gets big. When you start seeing waves at 7+ feet that is something to see.

Yes, I was sitting on my deck and I heard a familiar rumble, I looked out in the channel and sure enough it was that awesome Saber. I watched him make a few passes and as always the boat looked incredible..........Nice Rooster Parn!!!!

Thanks! When we got down to the beach we actually thought it was going to be bigger than it was. :eek:
