Went and rode Berryessa on Tuesday the 12th. Got 900 extra pounds put in the boat and had to try it out. The outside temp was over 70 degrees and the water was glass. Not sure how cold the water was but it was not bad. Used a 3 2 full length wet suit and was not cold. (Closed toed boots are the best to ride with in cold water.) Never used the boat heater or a towel. It was a lot of fun and will be riding again vary soon. A few branches floating but nothing large. We had only 3 people on the boat and with an additional 900 lbs put in the boat the wake is massive. Makes a huge difference. Added 350 lbs to the bow and 550 lbs to the back. Will post some picks of the wake. Here is a pic of the water that day.
