We want to pull our boat to a few more poker runs this year (outside of Eufaula). Would GLOC & LOTO be to big for our boat???

I run a 24 Superboat and there are days it is definitely too small on GLOC. For last year's poker run on GLOC, it wasn't too small, and for the the fun run on the shootout weekend at LOTO last year I didn't have any problem. Sometimes it is and sometimes it isn't. I guess that isn't much of an answer, but it all depends on the day. This past Saturday was big water at GLOC and I could hardly run. Just ask Seadated and Masher. I'm sure they were laughing as they went by in the Cafe!

If it's a matter of chance...we'll be there. Isn't the Shootout the last weekend in Aug.??

You can always run, you just may not be able to go as fast depending upon the water conditions. Both lakes can get pretty nasty for a 25 or so foot boat that wants to go fast but as long as you are willing to slow it down and get a little wet you will be fine

So it would probably be fine if it was 2 of us in the front & no one in the back.?.?

I think youll be fine no matter what. You may not be able to run WOT very much but its not like we have small craft advisory. Its mostly just washing machine water. Born and raised on this lake and never had anything over 26' until a couple years ago.. The roughest part of the lake is the mouth of duck creek but its only 1/4 to 1/2 mile area. The rest of the lake should be fine..I like it when we get a good windy day and get some chop, it seems to me like it cuts the washing machine effect down considerably..

Half the boats at Dripping Springs are ski boats, mastercrafts, pontoons and bassboats.

But dont compare a safe boat ride to ANYTHING you see a guy in a bassboat do. Those mofo's are BAWLSY!

your boat is sweet. watch the water ahead. hammer down. OVER.

That was a great run across the lake. You got the jump on me but that was Cig water and the Cafe' just ate it up. Sometimes there is an advantage to a big heavy tub.

I took this pic of Jayhawk that day as we passed him
