Good thing that baby fired up and got turned to quarter or hey would have been swamped by that last wave.

I was thinking the same thing Gillie...he already had some water in the boat from the first two.
We get a similar effect in a narrow passage to the open from our area of the 30000 islands of Georgian bay(Pointe Au Baril, Ont.). If you get off course 30', you'll be on the shoals so you cannot quarter with a big boat. When going out,I usually get water over the windshield in this spot. Fr. Frank's right, it does get the old heart racing but knock on Teak, I've never lost power(even with outboards)! That's a situation that I hope I never have to face but probably will.
Anyway, hope y'all enjoyed
