I was in 8 to 10s lake Erie. 16 foot boat. 45 minutes. Can't swim, didn't bother putting life vest on. Can't swim😊 wild ride. Rode the tops. Fast learning

Ocean people can badly underestimate what can happen on a lake. Re. the tip to move people to the back, I think that is true, nearly always. But the exception can come if the conditions are horrible--and the more weight in the back, the more lift to the bow. And with the bow UP, the wind can then push it back, and sometimes even over. The big deal, IMO, is patience. If it is really bad, one tends to want to get to port as soon as possible and that is not always prudent. Give her enough throttle to for sure maintain forward motion and get home safe. And as this Gentleman pointed out, it is not always the shortest straight line to port that is best. I once had true, Gal Force winds on a lake and I was in a very small boat, tiny engine and no way, no how was I going to try and cross the lake--just went very close to shore--so close if she sank we would not be in water over our head. Then we "zig zagged" all the way around the lake and to the pull out point. It took a long, long time, and we got drenched in cold water, but if she had swamped, we could have walked out of the lake. Use your head and don't pa pa pa panic--that never helps.

Ocean people that understand wind and water know exactly how dangerous a lake can be. Short fetch causes seas to be closer together. Lakes tend to be like washing machines as the seas get closer together. Oceans have thousand of miles of fetch which can result in huge seas, but they are also farther apart. Honestly, I have crossed oceans on small boats and to me, the most dangerous waters I have ever been on is the Gulf of Mexico or Great Lakes. Yea yea I know about the Southern Indian ocean but I've never been there. Great advice sir!!!!

Texas law requires that the "kill switch" must be worn when the motorboat is moving at greater than headway speed. Headway speed is defined as slow, idle speed, or speed only fast enough to maintain steerage on course. The law requires the operator of a vessel that is less than 26’ in length and is equipped with an engine cut off switch.

That’s all I can think about watching this. Actually, that and PFDs. Especially in a safety video.
