Was traveling 22 mile in rough river waters with 4000 Boats!! Had a JERK in a 34ft cut across in front of me and dropped head in a wave and took in 10in water in the WHOLE boat!!! Luckily the bilge pump worked fast for the most of it then for some reason slowwed down flow, but we got back to dock!! It was freakin nuts out there...NOT doing the Aquapalooza thing again a Lake Travis...they are right...Austin is weird!LOL
I had a friend buy a Tige because the dealer told him it's a "dry boat" well sure enough if you drive it incorrectly you can take water over the bow on his boat too. When I first got my OBV last year I did it several times while surfing before I got the hang of it; haven't taken water over the bow once this year. I was out on Lake Barkley- passed a 40 ft sea ray with a little excitement but kept the nose up and took the rollers at a slight angle=no water.
