Come out for a ride in some "bigger" water with one of us. The best way to learn is first to see how and feel how it's done. The tipping point for me was driving at night in some waves...you are FORCED to drive by feel...and it works. I'd be happy to show you what I know...believe me, I am very familiar with the position you are in right now. In my first boat, I was just amazed at how fast others could go while I was constantly bangin' the rev limiters coming out of the water. I'll send you a pm with my number...if it's bumpy this weekend, I'd be happy to take you for a spin.
And Jason...time is kinda tbd...but I was thinking 9 or 9:30 meetup for the "western" crew at EC or Hammond.

Man...just a rough estimate after ONE DAY of publicity...there's already about 15 boats interested...we need some representation from the northside Chicago boys and some more T-dockers...

Emailled Jason yesterday with our basic plan, and he seems suitably enthused. We're going to have boats leaving from Hammond, East Chicago, Michigan City and Portage... I think we'll just have to pick a time to meet at Portage, then make a big group run to MC. Jason is talking with the Harbormaster to see if he can get us slips and/or spots on the wall to raft up. He is on vacation right now, but said he'd get back to me on Tuesday. As of now, if you want a slip for the weekend, it's every man for themselves.
