Whiteout closeouts

2013-LM-06-27

Surf: 5.6 ft at 12.9 s from W at 273°. Falling/low tide. No wind.

Heavy fog this morning. Not only only a blind paddle out, but some foldover closeouts. Probably not the best day for the hull, but that seems to be a theme lately.

After getting clobbered a few times, I headed south for smaller closeouts. I got a few short rides. Nothing fantastic, but workable considering the day.

There was one moment where I was trying to paddle out over and incoming wave and the water in front of where I was about to paddle started moving. I’d seen quite a few dolphins already so I was banking on it being friendly sea life moving around. After the shark vs kayak reports the other day, it was a little tough to paddle straight into in fog that thick.

Whole morning was a little spooky.
