Default 24 Sakater 4th time out Video

This Vid was taken on a poker run down the St. Clair river. River gets some nasty waves. I was running with a 32 Eliminator and a 36 Nor-Tech both were cats. Nor-tech 2400HP. They were just playing, but I was there. I need more seat time so I didn't push too hard in those conditions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_fu...ature=youtu.be

Be careful Andy. These boats do not yield much warning. Especially the 24. Keep having fun and making videos!
Weather up there changing soon I assume.

Flipping or rolling? I heard it is next to impossible to flip a 24' over backwards, or was that B.S? Was told not to change direction too fast especially at speed in the rough, barrel roll for sure. Any input from anyone who has or had a 24 would be great as there is no school here except for the school of hard knocks. Andy More vids to come.

Though I've not ever owned a 24, I can tell you that what you need to be most careful of in water conditions such as those in your video is digging a sponson in a quartering wake and having the boat hook and roll on you. Either that, or tripping the transom and stuffing it - the 24s were notorious for that in ocean races.
