Got ya all beat. Went out to see just how bad the water was. Well, I'll tell ya, when they say there were 10-12's they were'nt kidding. LOL They just forgot to tell ya that there were an occasional 15 ftr's mixed into those numbers.
No matter how slow or fast you ran, there was no gettin away from having a wall of water come straight over the bow. There were times when you looked over to the side, and the city of chicago dissappeared, and all you could see was water. This was about the roughest water I've ever been in. Played for about 20 minutes or so, and had enough. Took a crapload of pics out there, but I don't even know how they turned out. When I get them downloaded, I'll post some if they turned out good and were'nt blurry.
Now the waverunners was another story. Went all the way out to the pumping stations and back. Got thrown off about 15-20 times coming off the tops of those swells. Just plain brutal out there today. Did I forget to mention, we did'nt see another boat out there all day long. Not even those goofy blowboaters. LMFAO I always thought they liked the wind.

I usually have a video camera, but since I was supposed to film the race at Byron, I gave the camera to another videographer that took my place. Went to the lake instead of the race at Byron. Big mistake on my part. Oh well, at least now I know what 12-15's are like.
