I was looking at photos of our last trip out and found a sure cure to slow planing. If it were legal, I'd have my buddy Tom pull anchor and hit the throttle. Say no to crack. :eek:

You sir, are Coast Guard bait. I see lots of cruisers with kids and adults on the bow, while underway. One slip and they are chum for the bluefish to enjoy....

It could be worse-have 2 knuckle heads on the bow!

Easy now Chris, the only thing that was running was the engine compartment blower. My high center of gravity friend was pulling us away from the beach. I nicknamed him Cheap Windlass. He was tugging us out before engine was fired and was seated before it was put in gear.
