Steve,
You are absolutely correct about the instability of the Bass Boats. My wife 
and I had the luxury of being out on our Hobie 16 one windless afternoon and we 
were getting bounced around pretty good by the large three foot rollers 
coming off of passing cruisers plowing thru the water. Sure enough, along comes one 
of those bass herders in a hurry to get to the perfect spot. One of my gripes 
about these guys is that few, if any, have any experience with a boat prior 
to owning their bats out of hell boats. Anywho, this guy and his partner hit 
one of these wakes broadside. The bass boat rolled up the wave and went 
completely over. A perfect barrel roll. Landed right side up. Nothing fell out of the 
boat, not even the fisherman. It happened so fast we couldn't believe what we 
had just seen. Those two sat there for a long time. No doubt cleaning out 
their shorts. When they left, it was at a considerably slower speed.

Rummy
