Couldn't be more proud of my wife!

After about a year of training, my wife told me last night that she finally feels comfortable being my driver. She’s been doing a great job and has made a number of good decisions on the water. She’s even mastered the art of pulling me barefoot which is quite the task. Here’s to you honey!

congrats!!!!!!!!!

i am in the process of getting BABYMAMA to this point as we speak!!!

but in her defense she is learning how to drive the boat, pull wakeboard, and also pull surfer!! pulling a surfer is hard to master due to the rope length!!!

she is learning quick!!!

Congrats on that. My wife has always been a competent boat driver, but that never seemed to stop the arguments about speed variation when she was pulling me. Fortunately, Perfect Pass fixed all of that. It's nice because I can more easily find a driver for a few runs if I happen to see glass water at sunset at the last moment.

How's your water temp? I noted last night that we've made it up to 68 degrees down here.

Awesome! My wife gets the same accolades! A lot times I wouldn't get a pull if she wasn't in the boat. She didn't have any experience driving and now pulls me footin' as well.

Fish Lake in Maple Grove was reading 71 degrees last night! The boat has been down in the cities lately due to poor ramp conditions at the lake up north.
