If your crossing a wake of a boat Your passing an do it right an hammer down after You cross the wake going to the same stop (look at the vidio again) thats the way its done. It looked controlled to Me. JMO. Artie

That was just the first thing I thought when I watched it, was how quickly that boat came up and how close they were.

Wow, it really wasn't that close. That skater is two of my good friends driving. I had two spotters on my boat. If you listen closet my rear spotter said he was going to pass, I told him ok and he passed right between us. Not a big deal.

What may look wreck less to you we do all the time and hold our lines with spotters, they only passed that close because it was me and wasn't a surprise.

I'm kinda Mr Safety......But it really was not that close. Had it been a boat not with the group maybe but they were all heading to the same place.

Just can't believe Kelly O got passed like that.

Gald you guys had a good time, sorry I could not make the tow up really like that lake.

Ha, really wish Kelly O could have made it. Wanted to see him run with those cats!

Again, was safer than it seems. Close freinds that have years of experience boating, snowmobiling and riding motorcylces with me. We were almost to the stop that we have all been to a million times, and all running the same line. For those that do not know the lake there was not as much room to go around as you think. To my right was 2 feet of water and pin markers, islands and the same to the left. Why I am explaining this to people that were not there I have no idea.

We had no complaints of wreckless behavior all day. And that was not a close call.

Default Man !!!

I wanted to make that run, being a Syracuse Native, I just didn't have enough prep time after the Lake Cumberland Poker Run. Maybe next year, looked like a good run.

Do it again next year and I'll be there !!!
