I took my Donzi 22C to LOTO on Saturday and ate dinner at Cap. Ron's. Unfortunately we had to leave early because my daughter got sick.

I will say that I can NOT believe how rough the water was when we arrived! We ended up getting there at the end of the day when EVERYBODY was leaving. There must have been at least 7' high washing machine waves! The boat did great, however my wife did not.

After my wife got through yelling at me for taking her in such rough water and laughing while doing so, I was pulled over by the lake patrol for entering the "no wake zone" slightly above idle. I guess the 27' fountain at WOT got his attention when it passed me. He was friendly, I plead ignorant, and he let me go with a "this is a no wake zone and where are your life jackets" speech. (Keep in mind, I was on the lake 10 minutes at this point).

Long story short, I drove 10 hours (total) with a pissed off wife and a very sick 3 year old, only to drive the boat 20 minutes, and stay the night in the hospital ( sick 3 year old).

It sure does look like it is gonna be a fun trip next year when I only bring my buds!

Come on back up next year planetwarmer

I've been going to LOTO for 15 years and this year was my most expensive trip And I didn't even have a boat up there
