Tom, anticipating that you were about to post pictures of your stern
wave, I took a few of my own last Sunday. The one below was taken
about a mile west of Sanibel Island while traveling about 2 knots over
theoretical hull speed in a 60,000 pound boat. If you look closely
you can see two dolphins swimming in the wake which I estimate to be
about 3 feet in height at the stern of the boat.
These are the kinds of wakes I just LOVE to run into on Narragansett
Bay in my Ranger.
LOOOOOOVE them.... :)
=========================================
Yeah, you could get some serious air on that wake. Given what it
costs me to produce it, I should charge admission :-)
And I should charge for the back and ankle pain caused from landing
after one of these sneak attacks. :)
As it is I give everyone one free jump. If they annoy me in some way
and make a turn for a second pass, I just slow down a couple of knots
and take the fun away.
I bet those lunatic PWC riders really enjoy it too.
All the best,
Tom
