Oh the humanity.... :frown: I opened the cooler and look what I found... :frown: This is what I get for launching off the Havasu Landing Casino cruiser's wake at 60 mph..... :notam:

We were completely airborne.......didn't land that hard, but I guess the Ketel and Tanqueray had a bit of a contact.....

Mandelon,
Thats gotta be the worst wake on Havasu. I have heard of so many people getting hammered by that boat. One guy actually cracked his hull (a new cheetah).
Its a sleeper. Kinda a depressed wake. You dont see it until "bam".
Sorry about your loss! :(

I saw this happen, it was ugly. Luckily the girlies were safe..... :rollside:

To anybody crossing that big Dreamcatchers wake (and the rollers go out well after he's gone by, believe me) be careful. It cost be a fractured vertebre two years ago and my back is still not right. Even when he is pulling into the harbor they still lurk out there. They sneak up on you because they are slow rollers spaced well apart!! The river tour jet boat puts out some "humdingers" also!! :eek: NSF

It's a lot like the sleeper wakes produced by the GIANT tour boats on Powell, but smaller.
