Yeah it was a kick'n ride home.... I got hammered on the same section of Absecon Bay. I had more rain blowing in the back of the boat then I was taking over the bow. After losing 30 mintues trying to get them to open the Beach Bridge, close due to high winds..lol.. I was able to drop the riggers and antennas and slip under with a RCH clearence.. GE inlet crossing was another story -4'-6' with 3'-4' rebounding off the rocks. I would see the bridge every 3rd wave that didn't break over the bow (note bow rider floor drain needs to be bigger) BR section filled with about 10" of water during the crossing. After that it was smooth sailing. Only other thing was, I though Iblew the lower unit, because I was cruising at 4400 and she would turn up to 5200 without touching the control, after this happend a few times ,I was able to locate the problem.. a 40mpg gust up the back of the boat..
