Planning a couple road trips with the SA this year.

Two places have shallow water at dock and will require mooring.

I have a small box for the bow and ordering a shore spike for the transom. How much wave abuse can this combo take?

2-3 foot rollers from of course other wake boats (lol) are entirely possible, we are our own worst enemies.....

It's pretty robust however if you are expecting heavy wave action I would look at extending the scope of the anchor line.

10:1 ish would be doable. Might look for a more robust anchor line too.

A bungee on your anchor line takes out the shock but give your boat room to bob around.
