Big $$, big power, big drives, Tres classes, talk crap about how awesome their brand is at handling waves and don`t have the balls to even exit the channel to see what the conditions are like.. oh boy. probably best to stick to jumping cruiser wakes or staying within your bay or River of the Ozarks and please stay off of Facebook telling everyone what a wavecrusher you have. 90 boats got schooled by sub 38' bravo boats. :gfight: Welcome to Lake Michigan, it gets rough and you may actually need to know how to drive a boat. |
Oh Hi Dan!! lol I knew you would see it this way also... lol

Someone mentioned they were concerned for safety. Which, I do respect.
However, I don't see the "safety" topic come up much, when you see all these poker runs on inland lakes and rivers, where guys are clipping 100, 125, 150+ plus with a boat full of passengers in overcrowded areas. I hardly think those who chose to go out and run their boats in this, were being "negligent". I'd rather be doing 50mph thru some swells on AJ's 33 Powerplay, than 150 in a 30ft cat on an overcrowded inland lake with pleasure boats tooling around everywhere. |
I think he turned back also..

Perfect place for that "Onion Run" thread to have taken place.

I broke a starter so I was out before the big lake, not saying I would have ran in it. I have been in the 33pp many times, it runs the deep stuff well. There was also Hudaks 35 ciggy that ran the available stops. |
I'm with you on this, that poker run was a proving factor of what I say all the time locally when Erie kicks up, all the big ballers stay at the boathouse, guys like Rob (36 Apache) Myself, Scott (Lake Effect) and even little Mark with his 26 foot Powerquest still go out and boat around, shows the "normal" people actually use the boat properly and every weekend, we have Jaws (55MTI) local, he goes out a couple times a season to PIB and back, that's it.... Why have it??

I see boaters and crew running hard even in flat water conditions without life jackets at speeds way over 100 mph plus - a clip. I am lost at this totally especially in poker runs and fun runs. Hopefully everyone checks their lanyards and operation beforehand as well plus clips them however for being pulled ASAP if needed to. Wonder how many have never even tested to see if their KS is operating correctly.
