Is that a shrimp-en boat Lieutenant Dan? Where can I get one of those?

I believe that is a shrimp boat. Just think if you could get that thing to pump a chest high wave with a crisp little barrel.

cool Matt! looks like a trip to OZ is in order once that thing is finished.

had to watch to the end of the first video on stream19 to really understand what they are trying to do. very cool idea! a huge circular endless wave...

What am I doing wrong? The first time I tried the stream19 url it asked me to reister, the next time it gave me a map of Marrangaroo! :-)

I had no idea there was even a place in the world with that name.

Jeff, I clicked the this one thing that had 3 videos in it.

Thanks Matt, I finally got it figured out - on my browser it comes up with a google earth map of Marrangaroo - over on the right is an inset with the three videos.

I love the location name, it would make a cool board company name: Marrangaroo Boards. :-)

Right on. It would. My buddies here in North Florida are clamoring over that video since it stays lake flat here during the summer.

Think this boat would work to do something like that.

I think Billy C is trying to hook up something like that boat down in Corpus Christie

Can you imagine the gas bill on that thing.

Matt, a lot of surfers in the Santa Barbara area will boat to the Hollister Ranch or the Channel Islands, 80+ miles roundtrip, just to ride 10 or 20 waves in CROWDED surf conditions. I think they're nuts. Wakesurfing behind a big boat actually saves gas compared to that!
