They were spaced a good 100 ft, it's not like they were splashing over the wheelhouse, more like a slow rise and fall, a nice ride infact. Joe Joe, I think I understand your plight in that you constantly overestimate wave size. It's because all your adult life you've been telling Terry this: ----------------------- is six inches. Bwahahhahahahahahhahaha. Wilbur Hubbard Those aren't waves, more like just a bit of "chop"... If you want to see REAL Waves, come on up to the North Pacific, during Crab Season, in the winter.... them is REAL WAVES... they Start at 20 ft and go on up to 40 - 60 Ft, and start with 50 Kt breezes and on up to 120 Kt Gales.... You know your in one when the Snow is blowing UP, and the Engine Governor is trying to keep up with the Prop, coming out of the water, as each wave passes.... You fair weather mariners are a hoot to read...... -- Bruce in alaska add path after fast to reply |
