Let's at least go out and take a look at the bar. I'm almost sure we could make the run down to Cape Lookout.

Marie does not give it more throttle when the going gets rough, she just holds on to the wheel and forgets to back off the throttle lol.

follow this link to view bar cameras of the action on the coast.

If you don't want to take the boat out, why don't we do a night dive on the jetty. Extreme surge, take your seasick pills. Flying exit at the end. Does anyone have Mac and Jacks in Garibaldi?
