that must have been what i saw them filming a couple weeks back during the maverick's contest weekend. f'king sick. not only do you get pounded but the paddle out is impossible and the current is insane. you burn out just trying to stay in position.

ESU, you're killing me bro.
Can't wait. Let's do it.

My bro had a little "episode" out there recently.
Strong easterly winds were blowing water up and over the side rail of the boat, causing them to take on water faster than the bulge could pump it. They lost power around 9:30 and were unable to get the boat started again.
Mayday call to LACG, they deployed SBCG.

The SS Hanta Virus almost got blown out into the SB Channel!

sounnds heavy Jefe. I've towed a couple of boats that were dead in the water myself. East winds and down canyon winds out of Gaviota can be bad. I had a "episode" myself when anchored off Gaviota (out of the wind I thought) heavy down canyon winds combined with not enough scope on my anchor line caused my boat to slip it's mooring and get blown out into the channel. I called the coast guard but since no one was on board, they said there was nothing they would do. the boat drifted 20 miles toward Santa Rosa, when it was spotted by a crew boat servicing the oil rigs two days later. They gave me the coordinates and I contacted vessel assist and they ran out and found it. A grand later I had my rig back without a scratch. Consisdering the value of all the boards, suits, ect. on board I was lucky. Also was lucky some urcin divers didn't find it first since it would be considered salvage and "finders keepers". Important lesson, make sure you have enough chain on your anchor line.
