I know you've been on LIS up near The Race when a sub comes out of New
London. I swear, it's about the only time I've ever been surprized by
the size and depth of a wake - had just about enough time to quarter
the three waves or I would have taken a ton of water aboard the
Ranger.

Talk about a wake. :)


They are impressive, unusual shape also.


Very sharp resulting in a steep wave front very close together -
always come in sets of three. It's like dropping off the edge of a
cliff.
