Awesome That was cool...

Very nice.....

BOth sides are awesome too. Very nice.


I guess it does not matter if that is an inboard, you are like 30+ feet away from the boat.

[tigesinaus]

yeah and the guy is able to start without a rope which is pretty crazy.
i figure the trawlers must be a full displacement hull so they move a hell of a lot of water.

That's actually been posted before, very cool! Some guys at the coast here in Texas do the same thing with the tankers.

[samw]

What does that have for ballast....30-40 thousand pounds????

Would be fun...

I agree with tall you are far enough away from the boat to be legal in Idaho.

[tigesinaus]

wow, that looks mad also, im keen to try something like this.
i will have to chase down a tanker in the tinnie one day

Sorry guys, but I can't see the vids but just to add my $.02. I was on a deployment one time watching a surf video that one of the guys had. It showed those guys in Texas with the tankers. They would long board behind them for like 5 miles or so. Showed them with their coolers on the front of the board. They would just make a day out of it.
