Hey all! I just posted the event info for the 2014 Brouhaha on the MWCI site. Get yourselves signed up! I cannot wait to get battling again. We will be holding the event on March 22nd this year and will be battling all day Saturday, all day Sunday, and Monday morning. Come see your good friends, eat a po'boy the size of a human head, and watch out for those Aligators! Hope to see y'all there! John in Louisiana
A little bigger than a bath tub. But not as big as Chris' pond. Or About three times the size of your drive way if your drive way as one third the size of the pond.
I'm guessing the ability to turn a sharp corner is an important factor in deciding what ship to bring to this event.
The pond is aproximately 150 x 120, with an island in the middle. Battling on the pond is not for the faint of heart or the challenged in turning! If you are interested in seeing what battling at Wade's is like, simply youtube "brouhaha on the Bayou" and see the many excellent videos Johnny put together. My favorite is the best of 2011 part 1 - It opens with a great scene of me and Bob's Kongo's pounding poor Ronnie's I-Boat, followed shortly there-after with me sinking like a rock. Great fun! Get signed up - it is a not to be missed event!
It isn't that small. heh. There just isn't a long distance to run if someone is trying to get away. We've seen fast battleships battle in it. In that respect, the slower ships seem to do well.
Yall come on down south to the Brouhaha! Its a really good pond for ships like the North Carolina, Vanguard, Sodak and Des Moines Cruisers. Aint nothing down here to worry bout cept a few craw daddys and a lil ol gator!
