I guess its just a comfort level, but I have never owned a boat that was fast enough to chinewalk. I tend to stick to the fish and ski's. but let me tell you the guys in the elite series arn't scared. I rode with Russ Lane with 2-3 ft rollers on the lake and as soon as it would flatten out just a little bit he had his BassCat up and it would chinewalk and I swear we were on the edge of being out of control the whole trip. We blew the prop out of the water several times. Is that how all of you guys drive your boats?
