Yup, the pic bellow was taken running past ripple rock just north of Campbell River. A tide pool opened up pulling me down one side and taking the towed boat up the other. Them pools can get big real fast. The pic was taken just after I started to get stuff back in line.

My pop looked over at me a said whos the guy trying to pass us, knowing full well it was our boat. Had enough HP left to play with. just an example. One of them do I run the wall through or just stick in the middle. There really is no good one fits all answer for the area.
