Stupid Human Boating Tricks

My first reaction is to throw the engine in neutral, so I pull the throttle back. The boat starts to slow fast . . . too fast. I look forward and see the nose of my boat about a foot under water, with my friends scrambling (as the crowd does at a big concert when the headlining band comes on) towards me...

Next to massive wakes, nothing delivers airtime for a wakeboarder like a tower. Like a tow pylon on steroids, towers raise the attachment point of your towrope, eliminating the downward pull that goes hand-in-hand with transom-mounted eyes or traditional ski pylons. The result is an instant boost in height for the aspiring boarder and a likewise increase in hang time, two factors that will rapidly push riders to new skill levels. Towers also have a practical side. By serving as an attachment point for such items as board racks and speakers, they free the cockpit from clutter. Didn’t splurge on a tower-equipped wake monster already? No worries. You can add your own aftermarket tower (for as little as $774 with iboats.com Wakeboard Tower Sale) and a few hours of labor. Here’s what to look for.

Summer of 1981.
In those days Lake Michigan was stocked with both coho and chinook (king) salmon. One of the stocking points was in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin. After three or four years the mature fish returned to their stocking point to spawn. For several years I had fished the 2 mile shipping channel from Sturgeon Bay to Lake Michigan, and both the bay and the lake at spawning time (around Labor Day, and a couple of weeks earlier), invited pretty good luck.

The forward stowage compartment is huge, sized for three deep-cycle batteries, so you can put in a whopping 36-volt model without using up your stowage.
