Default 2004 46 Cigarette Strip Poker

It was honest 8's. 4's would not affect the attitude of a 46. Couldn't get over 50MPH but had a blast and had tabs down about 65% and minimal trim in drives.

Been on lake MI for a long time, very few days like this. Yes, we wish we had the GOPRO with us but we didn't and had to use an IPHONE. The video was short and only 8' in video you see and 12-15 when we got further out but we could not video it with IPHONE and hold on at same time.

It was a short ride, FREEZING cold but we had to test the boat and it ran great, flew straight and landed soft, AWESOME boat that is now in LOTO.

Sorry we did not have better video because it was rollers which are a blast and we do not see much on lake, usually rough days are a big soup bowl. We will get better video next time.

Hope spring gets here soon.

Regards,

With respect, I still don't buy even 8's. Look at the several wake shots you have. At no time do you have a wave that looks over 4. We have amazingly rough water in Galveston Bay sometimes and I have had to go home behind a barge in 4-5's. I have been out through the jetties into the Gulf of Mexico when the NOAA radio was saying 5-6' and they looked like 10's. We just did it to say we did and turned around after about 1/8 mile. It was very tricky even turning around. It was windy and we got soaking wet.

Certainly wished we got better video that day, buoy's are pretty accurate and you can go back and pull weather up for that day, it was rough.

Just have to sit back and take the beating on this one.

The ride was fun and one of roughest days we have had on lake but the IPHONE just didn't do it's job.

We will certainly get better video next time.
