    Young rowers are much faster than you and your boat and they are already at
    the pub having fun. :)

    And welcome to boatdesign.net!

    I'm not allowed in pubs because of my criminal past. :mad:

    You're obviously in an overly obtuse area. We have "pups" and plain old bars, that require prison tattoos, just to enter. If no tats, then a well timed sneer is usually sufficient for entry. Also welcome aboard.

    The problem is with the sheriff who will throw me back in jail if he catches me in a pub! :(

    Here is a screen capture from a video I made of Monday morning's rowing adventure. I like the spray from the bow wave that is visible above the gunwale.

    It would be really nice if I could get someone to take videos from a chase boat.

    Put a comment on Facebook or where ever, suggesting naked teenage rowers on the day you head out. You'll get plenty of videos.

    Call the sheriff's office and see which shift the bonehead is working and make sure you drink on those times.

    Can you run the main engine submerged while still on the dry dock?
