Thumbs down Stuffing

I now know what it is like to do a major stuff. Glenn and myself were running great at the Point Pleasant race when out of no where 3-5 huge rollers came in front of us at 79.99999999 MPH. Talk about its to late to do anything! We went for the ride of our lives. We went off the first roller and launched us into orbit. At that point there was no recovering but just yelling HOLY SH*&. We must have tripped it on the 3rd wave and mashed the front down and down and down. There was a wall of water that went threw us and over us. When we came up I was so happy to see Glenn in the boat and ok. He looked at me like what are you waiting for lets go already! WE mashed the throttle and the rest was history.
The moral of the story is NEVER FEEL LIKE YOU ARE IN COMPLETE CONTROL. We were lucky to have not been hurt bad.

Default stuffing

I have watched you and Glenn many times and have always been amazed at how well you guys run , but it gives me great comfort hearing you know who really rules the seas ! We must all remember in our great sport that we are all at the mercy of the sea! We must never lose respect of the sea and SAFETY is the number one concern of all racers .Im glad you guys raced and glad to see you guys un-hurt , we broke a drive early and had the best seats in the house for the rest of the race.We watched in horror as your boat disappeared!it was very scary, ( and 79.999 ++++++++at least! )and sure as **** you guys we able to finish the race and gave augie a run , gotta luv this ****! did anyone get a pic of it?


we stuffed once without helmets , the wall of water tore Jesse's contacts out of her eyes and gave me a bloody nose , very scary

Well, I guess you were lucky, Randy & Glenn, but as they say: Luck is with the brave and bold.

We forgot to pick up a blank tape for our onboard camera. Thanks to the lower seats and well built boat around us.
