Sorry but bull****, I guess you don`t see it but anyone that has seen you post knows whatever you have at the time is the greatest thing since sliced bread
If it`s yours it`s fantastic and most everything else is $hit. This is the Tim way, always has been.

If anyone disagrees with me please speak now or forever hold your peace. :food-smiley-007:

the biggest prob with our lake is it gets relatively shallow west of the Erie Islands so the waves get very steep and very close together. The other issue is the depth drops off at the islands and east and if the winds are from N/NE it stacks up big time right there between the main land and the islands and can be extremely confused and choppy without direction. I can remember one Fall run i mad in my 34 Scarab into an east headwind, was not to bad from Toledo to the cut through at Marblehead. Took me about fifty minutes to get to that point at 33 miles and the last six miles to The Casin took nearly as long. It was evil . . . really evil. There was no getting on plane and i had a very weird thing happening to me and my boat in that slop. It was steep enough the tip of my boat would nose into a wave every so often and as the boat teetered over the crest the props would come up high enough suck air down as they hooked back into the water and it acted like i blew a coupler. Would free wheel cavitate till i clicked into neutral for a second and let the props stop then back into forward. Weirdest thing ever and i was seriously freaked a bit till i figured out what was going on. Now thats a steep wave lol. I can tell ya one thing I'll take ten footers in deep water any day over threes and fours in the west Erie basin and islands. Its all good though . . . we all have some water we call home . . . this has been mine for forty five years :cool:

You people and your antiquated Vee's... did you see how smooth that big cat in the background was running??? :party-smiley-004:

I'm not gonna lie. Every time I see "pound fest" it takes me back to prom night.

A lot of what you are referring to is ball bustin, but if taken serious then so be it.... you bust a lot of balls... so what? you met me in person, we hung out... all I did was compliment your boat... we had a great Time, now seems you are hatin, not sure why.. anyone who knows me for real knows that's not how it is so I am ok with it.

finally someone else said how LE can be, they will believe you Dave, not me lol but it's cool... many will see one day if they come on the right weekends she gets cranked up... day to day you never know what this lake will hand you...

:D

Was your prom in Pound Town?

I believe you. It is a scientific fact that lake erie gets rough. It is also a scientific fact, Lake Michigan, superior, huron, ontario, atlantic and pacific ocean, and gulf of mexico also gets rough. You guys over there arent the only ones who can appreciate the ride of a 47 apache, straight bottom cig, scarab, etc. Just like daves story of this scarab blowing the props loose, been there before on lake michigan. Ran with a buddy with a 40ft cat that stood that thing on its azz end over and over again , while my 40ft formula with 24 deg straight vee blew the cabin closet doors off, broke the air conditioner, put a stress crack on the deck midship that you could have passed a silver dollar through., and sheared the fuel tank access panel screws off . It wasnt a video where the props never leave the water, and the throttle levers get pulled back once every 30 seconds, where i see guys calling it "5ft'ers"

exactly, the last year I had the 32 baja I shifted gas tank so hard I broke both 90's off the fuel pick ups that went through the bulkhead... list both engines thatbsucked! I was able to rig it at PIB to get back thank god... first time ever being towed in with a twin engine boat! Good thing Scott was right there when it happens wind was pushing me into rocks

Well, that sure sounds like fun!
