More power turns

[tessa]

another power turn gone wrong, but still safe, fun and exciting to do

I want to clear the air re: me and power turns. As some of you have gathered from a different post I am a safety fanatic. Although power turns look fun how about the submarine boat and if the driver smacked his head on the windshield. Did some one steal his seat belt

Or the girl in the second power turn getting thrown from her seat into the ski's jeans and rope on the floor. It makes an invigorating day. for her.

Or the real responsible driver, my BIL, who was in shallow water when he did one and he rolled the boat. Nothing like rolling a 23 ft 95 Maristar with their flat bottoms. he tore off the prop the braceItis IMO a similar opinion re:waking boarding at night or not. Because of my 35 years experience I am not a fan of that because of unknown danger and power turns for the same reason,

Now don't crucify me for having strong convictiiions and an opinion re: safety and the application of brain power......have fun but IMO don't endanger you passengers or youselves.

I am not innocent when it comes to playing on the boat but any thing that can endanger passengers IMO or damage the boat is going a litttle far don't you think.

another little tidbit is that powerturning is a good way to get you engine and trans. out of alignment.
