Splish Splash

Ideally, under full throttle the small vee at the bow of a Sande Ace would be lifted out of the water for higher speed and only the flat bottom at the rear would be wetted.  But, occasionally, the vee would catch a wave and the Ace could throw a lot of water.


Jack got the record for splash distance in 2021!

Here's Tom Farr on beautiful Priest Lake in 2011.



Here's one frame of Ned from a video shot from the Regan's Ace, Scooter, the origin of the splash.
Tom and Susanne have been really good at taking pictures and video while underway at the Rendezvous!
