capt jake Posted September 25, 2005 Report Share Posted September 25, 2005 Yup, they do that down off of the mouth of the Columbia, about 1 1/2 hours from me. Pretty rough stuff there! They can actually roll those boats over! :shock: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt jake Posted September 25, 2005 Report Share Posted September 25, 2005 Ray, I didn't know you began drinking so early in the day. LOL You crazy guy you! I have a friend with a 22 C-Dory, well versed seaman, who still shudders when he crosses. No way I would venture out there in a wee sail boat.

Greg Luckett Posted October 1, 2005 Report Share Posted October 1, 2005 Hmmmm? That's almost what it is like at the mouth of the Saint Joseph River when the wind is blowing hard from the west or north west. Sure feels like a wild ride.
