Do you ever drive your boat like this?

I can't imagine what this guys back must feel like after this.

Well ... my old Silverline might have gained a little altitude ... once ...

 

[Old Ironmaker]

That's me on the right. Fisherman will do anything to get to the best spot first.

Yeah all the time, I drive hard because that is what I find fun. I like going as fast as I can in 1-2 ft chop if the lake is glass like I will enjoy it for a while but eventually I circle back and cross my wake a few times over.

You just need the right seat base right? A smooth moves or air ride etc. can make that feel like riding on a freshly paved road I'm sure.

Driven once like that (a little slower) in heavy chop on a lake. Gave a great ride. Skimmed right over the wave crests.

That"s nothing special. Try googling "Jersey speed skiff".

 

[Augoose]

No thanks.

That isn't all that bad,....

The big boats like the ZV21 ride well and enter the water softer than it looks,.....

Now running like that on the Great Lakes in 4's and 5's, then it starts to hurt,....

Well....... yes I used to when I was younger

Not any more. Like a lot of other things I did when I was younger that is also a thing of the past. After 78 years on this earth I have started being a little more careful. I have a 20' Nitro but normally run it about a couple of hundred rpm;s over what it takes to keep on plane. I realize that my reflexes ain't what they used to be and it can be a little squirrelly when flat out up on the pad.
