Holy Cow! Glad nobody was hurt when that wave came over the bow and the front went down. My wife would have completely freaked out and people on both sides of the lake would have heard her screaming. Glad the 3rd toon helped prevent this in the future.

Mike may have gotten to know that lady a little better.reeltime123 wrote:Yea That's my friend Mike he was saving that beer.And was damn proud of it after...My brother just had open heart surgery 3 weeks earlier, and we were just going to take a casual cruise across the lake to a bar on the river, but being from South Louisiana the summertime afternoon monsoons had other plans...My brother had his phone in his hand ready to take pictures because the water went from flat glass to 4 foot seas in a matter of min. The wind was blowing over 40mph and that was enough to make the like like a washtub. The lake is 10 miles wide and never gets deeper than 12 feet
