Reginald,

Feel free to divulge this info anytime. Since I frequently head out in
stronger winds, I'm supposing I already execute this but don't "Know" it,
per say. I'd like to know for sure, though.

It really isn't a problem, especially if you know the secret. When I
purchased my first new boat the dealer told me the secret, and it is
very very easy.


And the secret is:

Don't take your single engined I/O boat out in any winds in excess of 20
mph.

While 20 mph will make it challenging, I would assume it would effect
twins also. If you are in a little runabout, they do not have as much
freeboard as your GB, so I would think they are not effected as much as
your GB, even with your displacement hull. I would assume 20mph wants to
blow you all over the place.

But that isn't the secret I was talking about.
