Those huge waves, like at Mavericks Break have the surfers towed in on a Jetski, and the recue boats are the same. |

Yes, he was certain that the US Navy wave height prediction model was wrong, and the NOAA weather buoys were reporting incorrect data during one of the major gulf coast hurricanes a few years ago. The US Navy height prediction model is conservative according to the folks at La Jolla and Woods Hole. Just saw a Discovery Channel show on rogue waves and how they are formed. Turns out that 120 foot high waves are not only possible, but entirely real. Every time I look at that video I wonder what king of boat, if any, could survive an encounter with a wave like that. I don't even think a freighter could make that one in one piece. Would probably be damaged, but unless there was a 2nd wave like it at the other end of the ship, then adios ship. One of the big dangers for tankers in the Bering sea is the extremely large waves that have a crest to crest length less than the ship length. The government has used some satellite monitoring to try to protect the tankers. They do not have enough strength in the hull to support the ship from the ends. |

Now I'm again painting a coat of garage floor two part epoxy on all edges and surfaces. Glue and screw to the stringers, using silicone between all seams.

I'd probably use a good marine deck paint as a top coat. Jim This two part epoxy stuff, as stated in the literature, is for garage floors, decks, pool decks, exterior concrete, etc. so I THINK I'm okay. I may take your suggestion and use marine deck paint with non skid additive as a top coat. |

The epoxy needs protection. He wasn't going to recarpet. He was going to apply a nonskid coating. Jim |

The paint has an additive to make it a non-slip surface. You can get it in a bunch of colors. Because it says it's okay to use on pool decks, etc, I'd think it would have UV inhibitors, but for all I know about paint, that may not be true! |

Carpet and plywood are a bad combo. Go with PT plywood and Nautolex vinyl flooring. Cabelas has it. |

Last time he came here was, admittedly, simply to try to destroy the integrity of other posters." Maybe I should have refreshed your memory. I spoke directly with him by telephone. He told me that the only reason he returned to post at rec.boats was that some posters thought too much of other posters and his intent was to try to discredit the credibility and reputation of those he considered too well respected in the eyes of other posters. I still consider the content and motivations of his posts only something worthy of being flushed. I also consider injecting somebody's name (to instigate an altercation of some kind) into a thread where they had taken no part to be childish and without merit. I'm sorry, Gene, but the person who instigated this ALL was JimH. HE is the one that told lies here about me, and about my family. HE is the one that said ****ty things about my wife and children. HE is the one that accused me of beating my wife and my kids. HE is the one that accused me of growing, smoking, selling, and giving pot to my kids. All lies, and he knew he didn't have one shred of evidence. THAT is instigating. I don't think that anyone would take any of that from someone like him without confrontation. Then he shows his true cowardice when I told him I'd be in the Cleveland area, even closer to him, Loraine, in the very near future, and I'd like to show him first, that I"m not Kevin, second, I'd like to see if he'd be man enough to say those horrible things about my family to my face.....which, by the way, he then went into hiding! Can we, now, return to the subject of boating. Sure! I'm putting a new floor in mine as we speak! If JimH is as bad as you say, why do you continue to have discourse with him? |

It didn't seem unworkably steep until it hit the backflow in the shallows near the beach. Poor guy on the surf board should have strapped a dozen empty fuel cans around the edges. Additional buoyancy, you know. :-) |
