Lake wind

[Tin-Can]

That's a BIG 10-4 Roger ! Have the same situation on Willard sometimes when the water level is low. Have been close to being capsized twice (on the same day)when hit by a big wave blown up by a wind blowing from south. Was at the north end, heading south into the wind trying to get into the north marina. Going south head on into the wind was not too bad, but to get into the marina had to make a left turn. That put me broadside to the waves. Misjudged the peak of one wave, turned left, and it lifted the right side of the boat up and started to roll it over. Having done just a small bit of sailing as a kid in SoCal, I jumped over to the high side of the boat and it came back down. But in getting the boat righted back to almost level, I pulled my kill switch. Motor shut off........[mad] one of those big Oh s___ moments. Good thing I have electric start and it started on first push of the button. Had another 4 foot wave bearing down on me broadside, so I full twisted the throttle, scooted into the marina channel with a fraction of a second to spare. Was a bit wet from wind spray, heart was doin 90 mph, but I was relatively calm and level again. Tossed out my anchor off to one side of the marina, poured a cup of coffee, got the fishing gear all stowed, and pulled into the dock to call it a day.[fishin]
