Rode in a lot worse,but that was on the coast in a 25' CC that was made for it. There are lakes here inTx where that is fairly common,,it outs white capping and starts rolling,you just have to work the waves and hope the motor does not quit on you.
@hjg82759 How the heck did you destroy 3 Rangers? You have to be drunk and blindfolded to destroy them... And all the guy in the video had to do was just floor it. He would have just skimmed on top of the water. I know, I have a ranger. I was just on Lake Champlain in 6 foot waves and it rode them like they were nothing. Ranger's are one of the best bass boats you can buy.
@davidandalex1 Sure Buddy keep Rangers balls in your mouth some more, 6ft waves and rode them like nothing, is total bullshit and you know it. "Just floor it" have you ever drove in rough water other than a 6 inch ripple?
@davidandalex1 Look, you can be in a low profile bass boat in 4' waves and it'll feel like 6' because you're sitting down almost eye level to them. If you're in legit 6' waves then you'll be eye level with them standing up in the lowest point in your boat. In my 18' salt water boat that's made for the craziest conditions, I'd have to slow down in 4' waves and in 6' or higher you have to go at displacement speed like 10, 15 mph at the most. If it's a following sea then you can go much faster.
duh exactly thats a freakin bass boat it has no bow to slicing waves you might as well take a flat bottom out there just with lower sides ill take my lund baron on that and be fine..ranger sterns are to low in the water for any waves
ranger boats will eat your ass off f in calm water much less big water worst riding bass boat our ther overpriced junk belive j have broken 3 of them never on another
This is Bass Utopia member Brian Bengtson who can be seen on our Lowrance HDS video! I fished that tournament too, and it was BRUTAL!

I've rode waves like that in my dads pro craft 21 footer and I will say even when you're the passenger its no walk in the park

I've been on the water that was so rough every wave picked up the bow of the boat high enough to get the trolling motor completely out of the water.

You think Rangers suck? You obviously have never rode in a Ranger because there is no better bass boat. Much better quality than those junk Champions

In the early 80s Lake Okoboji swaped our bass boat and the fellas on shore got a good laugh!

A guy in a nice deep vee walleye style boat would have been fine. Low sitting bass boats just aren't made for that rough stuff.
