Sounds familiar. I'd launched from Lindon, and quickly figured out there was no way I was going to make it back until it calmed down. Fortunately I was able to make it to Lincoln harbor. Pretty much had to work the throttle and ride the swells in. Reminded me of a "deadliest catch" episode.
All that was missing were some crab pots. LOL. As I was going in the harbor the waves were so bad it was picking up the boat and bottoming it out at the entrance, so I dinged up the prop a bit. Within an hour it was sunny and flat calm again. Crazy UT weather. Aside from the prop, and being completely soaked, everything turned out, but it's definitely not something I want to do again.
