Some new pics:
Pulling out of storage:

At the cottage, freshly washed and ready for the inaugural splash:

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

Successful splash at Penetang!

Inaugural boatnic on the deck at Beausoleil Island - lobster rolls - YUM!

4 footer huh....I cant even imagine a 26 or 28 foot boat would take those very comfortably.
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

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 . . .
