WildThing47 I'm a LI uy, and wind against the tide off montauk lighthouse = huge water. Was out in a 50ft custom sport fish riding up and surfing down waves. Stuffing the bow each time coming down. Gets nasty out there

Had on the life preservers, terrified, nobody in the boat said didley until we got back to the harbor...got lucky on that one.

from the islands east its not uncommon pending time of year

YES! Totally true story! It was my way of getting Ted introduced to offshore powerboating!! The boat handled it just fine and Ted did a great job running the boat!.... A little white knuckled but he did great!! LMAO.

2012 was mostly cloudy out on Saturday and Sunday and on Saturday a big storm was rolling in and everybody left at the same time trying to beat the weather.
Saturday 2012 was by far the roughest water ever leaving the Shootout.

Saturday 2012 was ROUGH. Hammered back in a 42' Fountain that took a beating. Only other boats on the stretch that were in it that we saw were a canopied Fountain, a canopied OL, and White Lightning. Memorable ride.
