I think Michigan is a bit bumpier than what Key West is forecasted to be on Sunday.....

Bump

From the pics this year Boyne had the perfect water for this run. How many Skaters and how many Apaches ran to the first card stop?

Our friends made it to the stop in his 36 Apache and I believe the 41 did as well.

It won't be very cool if someone gets hurt or killed.

Here's the thing, I can't remember somebody getting hurt or killed in an offshore big water poker run. All of the accidents have been in poker runs on lakes where even a 31 DCB with 1350's can go out and run 180. That isn't happening when you are offshore.

Totally agree 100% no cats running 100+ in 4-8 ft Great Lakes water... And yes the big dogs stayed at the dock at Boyne, good thing you spent huge money on huge power and 6's because you were afraid to break it, yet my buddy Robs 36 bravo equipped Apache ran until cancelled... Us "low ballers" seem to use our boats more properly then most "ballers"

Burn.

Is there something below "low baller", I think that's where I fit
