Open bows any size are in trouble on Lake Erie, but a 15 ft. open bow
can't even take the wakes on the big lake, let alone the weather. A mile
out is open water, big boats will be at speed, throwng 3 and 4 ft.
wakes.

And those boats should not be passing so close to a stopped boat or one at
anchor to cause a 3 or 4 foot wake breaking into the boat.



Wear your swim suit and PFD if you go, you will need them.


You are exaggerating. You can see plenty of 15 and 16 foot boats out on the
Lake on any nice day, even ones with open bows.
