My vid coming back from Key West in 2012 in the AT got criticized all the hell on here saying the waves weren't 6 footers...but we could only run about 30 mph, and I couldn't see out of the troughs...the waves were well over Pat's head, and he's 6' tall. I'm just happy he was driving...

Lately every thread is somebody posts something and 20 guys jump on him and tell him he is full of sh*T.
It is IMPOSSIBLE to tell wave height from a video. I agree if you look at the waves it doesn't look all that rough, but look at high the nose of that boat is launching. That boat is 46' long, you think a 4' wave will do that? Have you ever actually been in a 46 Cig?
I don't know if the waves were 8' of not, but it sure looks rough. If the guy who was there says they were 8', who am I to say that they weren't? And I never met Scott Shogren,but I have to believe he has driven a boat once or twice and knows how the trim button works.

Not the biggest waves for a 47 Apache, but nicely done none the less.

I wont comment on the video or what it looks like but I will say this....
Every time we have a rough water race, Im excited to see the video...and it NEVER looks as rough as it really was. Its really annoying actually.
Even if it isnt 15s...I bet its rougher than hell in that boat
