Agree with all that is being said.

I was out that day a while back when 5 rental yakkers and 2 yak fishers had to be rescued. Took me forever to come in, but knew if I stopped paddling, I'd be rescued as well. I pointed to the LG jet skis to where the rentals were at, holding onto the kelp.

Talked to the LG Capt, he told me I looked like I was having fun, I felt like Capt Dan on the mast in Forrest Gump, cussing up a storm.

Point is, I knew then I would not put myself in that position again, and those winds came without warning...I think you guys knew they were in store.

Glad all of you made it back in, egos bruised, gear lost, but safe.
