So we are out at lake Camanche and I have never been there before. I should have known by the sailboats that the lake got windy. Anyway to make a short story long. We just bought a new Ja Mako and already have a Stixxtreme. I only have one surfboard rack so I put the Ja Mako in the bow of the boat. I have put boards there before and was only going about 15 MPH. It started to get really windy with white caps when we were heading out to ride. I hit the rouge wave which made the bow of the boat go up. On the way down the wind caught the Ja Make which slammed into my windshield, snapping the third fin in half, before hitting my bimini top and breaking the front two straps. I reached up and put the palm of my hand on the bottom of the board to stop it. So there I am going 15mph one hand on the board as it is trying to fly out of the boat, one hand on the steering wheel, everybody else hits the deck, and I am heading right for shore. Then it dawned on me, throttle down dumb A$$. Anyway I need to get my bimini fixed and buy a new fin. The moral of the story is....I need another surfboard rack. Any ideas?
Wadd$
