Hey, Scotty!!!
 
Any more 8 foot waves crash down on the bow of your boat in 18 knot winds???

Had a very nice sail ,in 18kt wind, over to one of our fav. anchorage's.
Lisa was sitting on the bow, feet over the side catching waves, screaming
like a little girl when one crashed over on her.

Bwahahahahahahaha!! Sure, Jeff!!! I believe Scotty's story and so should you!

Hey, Scotty!!!
 
It sounds perfectly normal - something I see almost every weekend.

This has got to be your lamest troll ever.

Sure. On my boat the bow is too high, and netted in, to hang over, but the stern can
easily get splashed by a wave. "Crashing down" is a relative term; you sound like a jerk
making even the slightest issue of it.

Scotty's waters?????

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHA!!!

Where did he say a wave crashed on his bow? Are you doing this to support your claim of
credibility?

Bwahahaha! Jeff, you pinhead! No "wave crashed down on Scotty's bow."
Crashed UP maybe from a wake.
Scotty lied.

Nope! Never wrote it!

Hanging feet off the bow she was probably being hit by 6 inch waves.

This shed light on why you never leave sight of land ... you're terrified of 6 inch waves!

so!

Hey, Scotty!!!
 
The waves were around 2'. Every now and then, a group of 3 or 4 big waves
(4'?)would roll by. I've noticed this for some time, they always seem to be
in a group of 3 or 4. Not power boat wakes.

That's normal wave pattern...When they post that waves will be 2-4 ft, they do not mean that is a range but the norm. There
will be some smaller and some larger. Lake Michigan likes the "3 big wave" pattern, too...sometimes it's one building on top of
another with shorter troughs between them...really difficult when on the quarter...

Hey, Scotty!!!
 
Scott,
I watch a show on TLC a few years back. Couple of scientists were doing
some research on waves in general. I remember they set up a demo that
showed that small waves can synchronize and in effect become the occassional
bigger wave. Perhaps you are seeing this?

Hey, Scotty!!!
 
Wave heights are often reported as "significant wave height," computed as the average of
the highest 1/3 of the waves. The data from ocean buoys is broken in Swell Height and
Wind Wave Height, plus direction and period for each.
