First launch attempt had to be aborted. Ramp wasn't deep enough to float the boat. Crappy municipal upkeep.

Successful splash at Penetang!

On our lake,on a very busy day we will have good 3 footers.I call it the Maytag lake because the water looks like what you'd find in a maytag washing machine.All I do is put the tabs 1/2 way down and cut right thru it and if the water is really,really bad tabs go all the way down and it's like riding on rails.

Get your trim tabs...night and day difference.I thought all 502's came w/trim tabs.


Mine has no trim tabs .. It was an option.
I ran the Tickfaw 200 2 years ago with 3 footers coming from all directions and I was passing blood for 3 days after ... The boat felt safe the whole time ... So boat is fine ..Just your body that will suffer in 3+ footers:cool:

the easiest way i know is to go to photobucket web site and convert photos to html code and you can take the code cut and paste them in your posts. I am at work or i would walk you thru it better but the have us blocked out of photo bucket i will check with you when i get home to see how you are coming along and i'll help where i can

I used Flickr because I get a free account through my ISP.

But since you are a paying member of OSO, you should get your own gallery on this site.

I don't think my bow is chalky or are you talking about the orange one. I am going to be cleaning and waxing the whole boat after the season is over this fall, should really sparkle then.

502SCS hopefully at some point I can ship it down to Florida for the winter months . . . :)
