No question that it can be done. It's a lot more protected in there
however than going outside of Straford Point in the tide rips. This
particular boat seems to have fallen victim to a ruptured engine
hose if I read the news account correctly. That kind of thing can
sink anyone if you don't catch it quickly and know how to deal with
it.
I suppose they didn't know the water was supposed to come in over the
transom and not bubble up from the inside of the transom.

By the way, here's a courageous guy with a boat whose hull looks
suspiciously like mine, braving the rough waters of Lake Lanier to bring
home a fish. Same engine I have, too.

Looks like he has the splashguard installed.


If Waylon saw that much blood, he run sceaming.




Whatever do you mean? It's just your typical Lake Lanier largemouth.
Oh...you're not referring to the fish...
