[QUOTE="Fester, post: 461217, member: 6300"] When doing anything recreational you should be aware of weather. If it calls for strong winds or storms, going on the water should be the last thing your doing. Also should be aware of the limitations of your equipment. When i am on the lake fishing even if it says no storms calm etc i still keep an eye on radar/weather app. Its the one thing a capt of boat should be very aware of as you have your life as well as others in your hands. I have operated 22ft toons with 40hp all the way up too 22ft walleye boats with 400hp. It all comes down to knowing what your equipment can and cant do. The problem is that to many operators dont know what those limits are. Either because they barely use the equipment or because they dont care to know...thats a scary scary situation. [/QUOTE]
