Saturday Grey yacht with 6 foot wake

[cast4bass]

Just wondering who besides Muskrat and me almost got destroyed by this big fella. It was throwing a huge rooster tail and seemed like it was three stories high. My son got it on video with his phone but too blurry to post. We had to turn the bilge pump on after it passed by us above the nukes. I know the waves from the wake had to be six feet high. emoHoppingmad

It stays at Island Cove . It's ridiculously big !

I seen it also. It was huge. My son was in his last hs fishing tournament. He had no regard for anyone else on the water. Was throwing huge waves. It was gray. Sorta unique looking for here. He was close to richland creek when he came by us. There 2as probably 5 bass boats in the channel when he came up thur there.

Saw it above 60 bridge, and it doesn't belong on a river. Will end up damaging a dock or capsizing a boat, if it already hasn't.

 

[camaro88z]

I agree. If he has no regard for anyone else he should not be on the river. I hope the game warden spots him. Maybe a huge hit to match his waves to his bank account will slow him down a bit.

He destroyed me on Friday.

That boat's wake is legit. I was running next to him a couple of weeks ago and he was running 58MPH. In my opinion a boat shouldn't be allowed to put off a wake that high. I thought I was good to go with how I was hitting his wake but ended up spearing one of them pretty bad. It was funny because a couple of hours later I was up in the Hiwassee fishing and I was really close to the river channel and here he came around the corner. It looked like a firedrill for us getting out of his way. In his defense he did slow down for us, but I wasn't going to take any chances!

I agree with everyone this guy should not be running this boat on the river if he has no respect for anyone, he blew by me and I felt like I was going to tip over.

Somebody really needs to get good video of this boat and his reg numbers. It must be the boat I saw go by the Nuke two weeks ago, I was STUNNED at the size of the boat and the speed and size of the rooster tail. If he is doing this regular, he can be legally held responsible for any/all damage to property with his wake.

 

[saltyduck]

Its just a matter of time before a boat capsizes or sinks from his wake.

During the last Gen 273, he put above 50 gallons of water in my boat and I was sitting still. it's a Pershing 74. It's a 50 ton beast with 4000 hp. Top Speed 50.6 mph. Are ya ready for this? The price tag $4+ million dollars. Here's a link I found just outta curiosity.

I think it's a little too much boat for Chickamauga.

 

[jdw2920]

well if you need a new boat just let him sink you

4,000 HP !!! Bet that sucker drinks some gas.

"The Pershing 74 is designed to cruise from Gibraltar to the Black Sea, and be at home anywhere. " and this ass hat bought it to keep on Chickamauga??????? Heck it costs around 2-3k just to fill up the fuel tank. Chase and I watched it idle out of Island cove a week or two ago and I told him, hey look...that will destroy some boats in a hurry!

 

[Dropshot]

Saw it over the weekend. I told Dusty I did not think a USN Destroyer put off that kind of wake...

 

[Dropshot]

With that boat and the aquarium boat you could carve out a canyon!

 

[camaro88z]

Forsure. The aquarium boat I know they got on to him. He isn't supposed to be able to fly up and down the river now.

 

[VolsFan24]

I saw him flying past Chester Frost about 2 weeks ago. I had 2 others in the boat with me and the 3 of us starred in awe and amazement at how fast it was going. The wakes it was putting off were easily 5'. I immediately turned the big motor on and sped in the opposite direction. Its HORRENDOUS!!!

 

[ccone]

this guy has to be stopped this is just ridiculous if you don't have twra's number in your phone you better put it in there if i see him i will be calling and it won't be nice hes just being an ass if you ask me running up and down the river like that.

 

[Cracker-coon]

imagine flying out of a slough not knowing this cat just went buy and hitting that wake unexpectedly. I think I'd need some new shorts. I saw it while traveling to Cleveland Monday.
