It rolled. We were ejected. We are fine. Sore but fine. I just want to say I have the best friends ever. I want to thank everyone that took care of Katie. She is ok and we are back at the house. There are too many people to thank, but I will get to that soon.
Does anyone even know if that cruiser that threw the wake stopped?

Sorry you had an accident! That sucks. Why would the cruiser stop? How far away were they? Big boats throw off big wakes....and you can hit them 1/4 mile away and behind them.....so how would they even know there was a problem? Just trying to understand, and glad everyone survivied.
PC - is there a way to post pics from an iPad?

X,
Glad everyone is OK. Years ago when I lived in Navarre, I hit a BIG cruiser wake with my old Daytona 24, the boat flew, landed HARD, and thought I cracked my boat in half!!!

We at times have encountered large cruiser wake however it is not their fault when we are way behind them and all of a sudden we come from behind and there are huge wakes thrown from a cruiser or a barge that is minding his/her own business. We just pull back and deal with it.
Just wondering.
