It doesnt seem like Fountains are invited on this big offshore challenge slash onion run! I may have to watch these big boys run from inside the break wall where Fountains belong :cartman:
Post133 said Only a Skater or Apache or copy or reproduction or any variance of the above that resembles a boat will be allowed to paricipate in the said Onion Run. Kinda left it wide open:party-smiley-004: You are cut off of the batter :daz: ARB38 Sorry I missed you at the shop I know that Fountian will run:thankyouthankyou: |

One of the big advantages to the Skater is being 20-40mph faster, it can afford to run soooo much more locked in in the big water, and still be faster than the Apache running as loose as it can be
But seems to me that a CAT would win in the rough, especially if it has a faster top speed, up to a certain wave height, then the V would win, since it can still transverse the waves even if it has to slow down, where the cat will stuff if it has to slow down, lose the air packed in the tunnel, waves start slapping the bottom of the hull, etc etc. Hopefully its rough and we can find out! I will be there thats for sure! |

just my 2 cents here, i know it is a ton of work to put a fun run like this together. but doing it in june you are fighting with all the summer vacation crowd for dock space and the chances of waves are slim. cold water and warm air makes small waves. like june well bring. move to the the 3rd week of september after hot boat weekend and you have a great chance for some real seas and less traffic at the docks. warm water and cool/cold wind makes the biggest waves. just a thought. btw this is not a pontoon & bass boat run, it's the onion run.

todd The intent is to shake these boats down, not look at your beautiful reflections in the glassy water. :party-smiley-004: |

Pastrick had concerns about water level where we used to tie up on the wall ? but said they would have room and close to the Casino hotel, still in communications with Mark at Hammond ran out of time over Thanksgiving as Hammond was closed on Sat. Going back in 3 weeks. Thanks Jim |
