Last Memorial day Roosevelt Lake, AZ
I've been boating there my whole life, I've seen the nasitest storms that lake has etc.
Coming back into camp, storm came in and started to produce 4-6 foot swells, three little 19' boats, diverters all up trying to keep the tip up. quarter mile from camp, down into the swell, next one crashes over the bow. Knocks my 2 passengers out of their seats, the two foot wave travels over the deck and straight into the motor. With no power, 14" of freeboard and the swells getting bigger, I thought we were going to swim. Got towed to the downwind side of an island and waited for the worst of it to pass. Pulled the plugs, cleaned the motor out and fired it right back up and drove it in. Drank a lot that night.
The storm sunk three boats and capsized two that afternoon
No fun!
