42 feet swells may affect the handling of some kayaks.

Is a rudder indicated? Or will it get in the way.

At least its not 42 feet at 8 seconds.

Do those numbers sound strange to anybody else?  That's a LOT of water to move in 8 seconds...

not a tarpon

If I wasn't married with children and on such a seriously tight spousal leash I'd say it's a day not to be missed

hmb would be the perfect launch if the jaws aren't slammed shut If the direction is right it might be doable

you're so sick

Here is a link to the trinidad web cam. It is located on the pier but is protected from the north swell by the head. Still it may be an exciting saturday if the "forecast" is true. 

Today it looks like a millpond.

Bodega is calling for 27 foot swells and 13' breakers on the beach.  I am going to Home depot, maybe pick up some flooring and wall paper, Maybe bed bath and beyond, dont know if there will be enough time.  Actually a pretty good little saturday......
