If some monster wave was headed for the shore I'd paddle for the deepest water that I knew of. Of course the aftermath would probably be so horrible that you wouldn't have much to come back to. That's if the currents don't take you off to San Nicholas. Better pack some waters and power bars!.

I talked to a guy the other day at West Marine that was around some island chain during the Tsunami that hit India. He said that they were near open water and headed straight into the wave. When the wave reached them it was like sailing up hill but it did not crest. They just got to the top of it and then it was flat. Hours later they were sailing around scooping up people that had been washed off the island. Lots of people were killed. Crazy!
