It was definetly more Baja weather out there. I would have to say easy 3' to 4' with occational 6' roller. We got some good air out there on our way to Hammond. Once inside the break wall of Hammond we had some fun. It was like night and day. 3' to 4' to 6" max. It was great.

Dicks does hammer you hard there for docking. Luckily we have an in and they took good care of us docking and the food selection was great at the Dock. Everyone loves it on the run.

Jim,
Looks like you had a blast. Thanks for posting the pictures. I remember running the Checkmate at 70 under those bridges when everyone was getting out of work. The echo off the buildings was fantastic.

Did things work out for the gas dock?

Actually yes and thank you. I actually found out that Burnham Harbor is open to 7pm which is a a very good thing.

We did get rained on but it was that spitty rail where it dried as soon as it hit you so it actuall was nice, it was like haveing alittle mist spraying at you at time.

Mark,
I think you have bougt enough parts that your boat does qualify as a GSC boat.
