We went to a boaters' beach in Belmont Bay. Shared the place with about 50 other boats and had a great time. Went over to our old stomping grounds in Mattawoman Creek only to find the 'beach' overrun with hydrilla. No boats anywhere. Weather was great, little breeze (just enough to pinpoint the 'knob drift' problem), and nothing but wakes over one foot. The new Yamaha ran like a top. One of these days I'll see how fast it'll push that Key West. We're still very happy with the boat. Oh, and I didn't feel too 'foolish' either! Knob drift? Yeah, the thing Harry was complaining about on Chuck's Island. The position of the knob, when going straight, will vary with the direction of the wind. It doesn't mean there's a hydraulic steering problem or anything else, although I suppose it could. Why are you having a problem handling an 18 foot boat John? I can't believe he thinks it is the wind doing this... :) |
