thanks liquid asset for posting the pic, the size doesnt do it justice though , (not your fault) and i love that pic. right place right time . glassdave you are right when in flat water with canopys on its nice to have reading material cause its just like a car then. although flat water is the best when dialing in the boats to make them run equal, which by the way is not the easiest task.

Like I said earlier: "Yep. But once you get into the 6-footers, you tend to slop the martinis around a little bit. Lost an olive once."

Can anyone out there convert an .avi file into an animated .gif file? If so, go here: Pictures page and download the file that says "Short .avi movie in rough water, then post it in this thread. This little clip says a lot.

Or just download the clip and watch it....
