Times like these I miss my 28 foot crusier. I remember one day when we were anchored off a rock bar with about three other small boats around, fishing for cats. Two fellows come by in a 24 foot fiberglass bass at half trottle about 20 feet off to the side.

The cruiser rocked a little but these fellows in the jons next to me spilled everything in their boats and bounced into the rocks.

So that crusier would do 55+ and if you trimed it out at half throttle it would throw a 4 foot wake.

About an hour later I'm running to a new spot and the guys in the fiberglass boat are trolling a bank. I pull the crusier off the plane to 1/3 throttle, push the trim out as far as I could with the nose pointed to the clouds and rocked their world.

I could hear them cussing me as they held on to their gear. I yeld back "hey pay back is hell ain't it".

Now I know this was not the proper way to handle this, but I did feel better afterward.
