8-10's Ba ba ba bull
I have done numerous offshore trips from newburyport to new bedford in a 32' Blackfin with twin Cat 3208's I will tell you that I have been out in all kinds of weather. 8-10' waves will absolutely stop a boat dead. This boat is a very heavy boat with a flybridge and about 450 horse in each motor. We also got stuck at the end of the canal buzzards side in 14' Breakers, CONFIRMED. We would get to the top of the wave and it would break on the bridge then I would throttle up and the boat would stop dead at the next one. This was an ocean boat, not like the plastic we have here. If we on the lake encountered anything bigger than 3's noone would be out there. I know the people who boat on the lake and believe me when these people see whitecaps they turn the other way, nevermind being out there in 8-10's. I highly doubt this on the lake.
