Coast guard or captain's license
Joining the Coast Guard to get a captains license might not be the most direct path but your son would gain a lot of experience a long the way. The only problem with that is that it's a four year commitment and your choice of duty assignments is hit or miss. The boatswains mates are also...- tbuc

When's the last time you surfed and how was it?
The Ventura area has had a particularly rough late spring into early summer. Our particular micro climate lends itself to morning winds and channel chop. The odd thing about it is that it can be glassy to the north and south, as in this morning. But anyway... solo session on Monday and more...- tbuc

Snapper Drop-Ins
Since you mentioned Rincon... While sitting in the lineup on a glassy chest-head high day last week... I watch as surfer nr 1 takes off and 3 others drop in in front of him. He's up and riding as a section takes the 3 out. He's still up as one of their boards shoots up out of the white water...- tbuc

Do you enjoy swimming in freshwater?
We had a family reunion trip to Yosemite Valley during one of the dry years. It was later in the season but the river still had a decent amount of water. I brought my mask and snorkel and spent some time getting to the bottom at 10' and swimming around in general. The visibility was pretty good...- tbuc

The water in Ventura is brown for a reason
Stopped by for a look this afternoon. Still a crazy amount of energy and breaking way, way outside. Will be interesting to see how the point manages the smaller swells when all this settles down.- tbuc

Minor wound care, prevent the crater
So I shaved a patch around the crater and went with the Nexcare water proof band aid. So thanks for the tip. Although it hasn't kept the area completely dry it kept the scab intact which has allowed the edges to close up quite a bit. -

Minor wound care, prevent the crater
When I was a teenager, it was pretty common to have friends who had open sores from scrapes resulting from skate boarding or other mishaps. They were made worse by the effects of saltwater on the raw skin to heal and some got quite deep. Now that I'm getting more water time I'm finding myself in... -

*** Official Shark Thread ***
So we're servicing the buoys out at Midway Island and our dive boat is tied off with a small line to a sinker at about 30'. We need to get back to the ship and our dive officer decides he's going to breath hold it and swim down the line and untie us without a tank. He's no free diver. He gets...- tbuc
