the first couple waves would be the nicest
there were two sets of waves because of the catamaran hull

Mrs Stella Kwale said… Good Day,
How is everything with you, I picked interest on you after going through your short profile and deemed it necessary to write you immediately. I have something very vital to disclose to you, but I found it difficult to express myself here, since it's a public site.Could you please get back to me on:( mrsstellakwale588@gmail.com ) for the full details.
Have a nice day
Thanks God bless.
Mrs Stella.

yeah it probably doesnt kick up as much wake as this thing
it used to make anywhere between 1' and 5' waves depending on their angle of approach and speed

- Oh man, sounds fun. There's a ferry up in Georgian Bay I've been meaning to scope out, the Miss Midland. It leaves from Midland and does 4 tours a day. It tours around a bunch of islands, but it gets moving pretty quick on the open water. It's probably not as big of a boat though, so I'm not sure how big the wake gets.
