It's funny, I use to surf those wave in no problem. I wouldn't even tie my stuff down most the time. I was that(over)confident. Then one day it happened, got a little sideways in my prowler and before I know what happened I was rolling in the surf. It was a costly lesson and my biggest yard sale. Now I am hyper paranoid. I don't mine getting wet, but there is always a crowd it seems when I eat it. That hurts
Even with every thing tied down good one time. I was happy everything made it. It wasn't tell I started the 100 mile drive home I realized my 350.00 eyeglasses were gone off my head.(can't see without them)
