Mr White (to y'all) certainly does realize that, Johnny.
My manual advises against that while underway.
Seems it's a safety concern. Besides, how would y'all like to get repeated splashes of coldcwater from Halifax Harbour in your mug?



You're taking water over the bow while underway? You have the wrong kind of boat for your boating venue.



I don't know where Don goes boating but a bowrider is no place for the
ocean or in large lakes where the seas can get rough. Just my opinion.


Between 2/3rds and 3/4qtrs salt and brackish water...rest on fresh water.
The salt is usually halifax Harbour, the NoethWest Arm and Bedford Basin, St Margaret's bay and Mahone Bay. Brackish would be Porters lake and the Bras d'Or lakes.
