ok ok. i have done submoves before and have always been cautious. This labor day weekend i decided to show off a little, first bad move. So my friend in his boat gets the video camera, second bad move, and i do a small submove. bildge all the water out and decide i can do a better one. So i get going about 20mph and slam it back and gun the throttle. ya soo much water came over it almost knocked me out. It was completely filled. Then my girlfriend looks at me and says, "baby, are we sinking?" So I flipped out and told eveyone to jump out and i gunned it, got some water out but not enough....... i barely got it towed back to shore on the trailer, waited about 30 min for it to drain to find out that my motor had hydrolocked...... but i took the sparkplugs out, turned it over a few times, and put everything back together and was back on the water about 3 hours later. Needless to say, no more sub moves for me, and yes i will be posting the video, girls jumping over board and alll lol
Glad you made it back to shore . BUT you didn't sink your boat , you swamped it . Sinking means it's on the bottom . Of couse at the time you prob were not worrried about technical definitions
