What boat you looking at? We need to meet up On San Diego bay for the 4th of July. That's is the only saltwater I for sure do.. Otherwise Havasu, mead and Testing on Lake Elsinore

28' Saber. My buddy has it in MI. 502s with bravos so turn key. Something easy to store and tow around. I'll stay in touch but we definitely have to hook up.

Huron the swells are even further apart. Although I have never been on Ontario I have been told by multiple sources the waves are long and far apart. So I do believe it is plausible to run trimmed out at 100...

Come on now, just busting your balls but you will never run wfo on lake mi in 4's in anything smaller than a 41-42ft boat. I don't know anything about the other great lakes but it just won't happen here. spacing is different from wave to wave and that changes daily. How often does lake st clair get true 4 footers? I didn't realize that lake turned up like that. I'm thinking about coming over next year for the races. After watching that video and seeing the responses It's no wonder where all the storys come from.

Wfo on lk Mi with a 33? No. I meant st Clair. The waves are very tight and you can get on top of them. And it is not common to get that water here. Just a hand full of times a year. Sorry if my post was confusing.

cfisher- you live in ca right? it's funny how you have so much experience with all bodies of water, is that because you are in the navy?? i wouldn't tell you how your boat will run on the west coat because i've never been there, so i would assume you won't be telling me what the water look like and act like in my neck of the woods. fyi - the rollers were about 100ft apart last week here. not the norm for here but gives you an idea of what we can get. yes, you are correct, you have to throttle the sh%t out of the boat, would you like video of that as well?

Haha! Why cause of my avatar pic??? Been boating in many places but mostly Lake Michigan and quite a bit in south Florida. Moved to SD in 2010 for a bunch of reasons but yes closer to Coronado. Boating out here is definitely different and I do miss the back home but still find it hard to run 100 in those waves. Haven't boated much by u except we hit manhattan when an old buddy bought his 50 hustler and we cruised around the Statue of Liberty. I would love to see a video of u running that fast in those waves!! If so that's impressive and hats off to u!!

I used to look for small craft advisories to go out jet skiing and had to be rescued a couple times by the Coast guard , I like big waves trust me

"bring my depends" Awesome I will, I have a closet full but one day I~ll be able to throw them away, I WILL have big balls like you ...one day.. till then I`ll just have to admire them on your truck I guess :lolhit:

why are they so blue??

So you put the coast guard at risk by being stupid? On another thread you where pissed people didn't get thier boat out of the storm and now your ins will go up because of it, who do you think paid for the coasties to pluck your dumb ass out of the lake? A couple times!:lolhit:
