Pretty unspectacular here today. Glad some of you scored and didn't get swept out to sea for certain death.

Never thought a single video could explain perfectly where the human race is at right now. But damn, this crew pulled it off easily.

What's the captain protocol in these situations? Untie the boats and head out to sea, or try to hold in place?

 

[mundus]

Get to deep water if possible, if not get boat under way with pointy end into the sea/wave.

paper said it was the largest eruption in 3 decades...

 

[rice]

looks like it just hit in slo county. watching the cam rewind on surfline at some of the spots around here you see there was a good surge just now. very minor from the looks of it

Heard that it hit here as 1' @ 40 minutes(!)

I surfed for a couple hours that morning and it was definitley rising and receding and causing a ton of crazy rips and currents. Overhead and pretty fun but a ton of paddling.
