Man I know I sound like an old man but ...

It looks like your on Kempenfelt Bay, pls be careful. Last time i did over 90 a Talon22, STV EURO and my old Stoker ended up 5 feet in the air.

- The 22 talon was fine
- The Euro (Kevo) ended up with the driver driven up into the sponson and the seat broken right out of the floor....
- The Stoker (God love it) bounced the rear off the first two waves, then decided to submarine through the third. If I'd been in my STV not sure I'd be hear.

In Simcoe you just don't see the big swells at 100 until your on them. I do not want to loose anyone from our community again.

Great Stuff though! :)
Dave

Thanks Dave. I'm always cautious and like Eric said I'm always wearing my lifeline. But James and I cruised up kempenfelt first and then after parked for a bit we decided to do a couple speed passes. The Bay was calm and we were the only 2 boats in the bay that we could see. If we were out any later than the May long weekend then there is no way I'd be pushing something like I was there because like you said you can't see the swells until they are there.

And I don't know know Ken, TalonMAN makes me sound like I put my big boy pants on, just doesn't seem to have the same ring too it :lol:

I dunno, if you say it in a low booming voice and imagine the echo, it does sound impressive. Almost superhero ish...
