[Paddlewise] Paddling Through Surf

My $.02:  
One small issue for those who have suggested using fins to get in...If you
do have to get out of the boat and do any maneuvering, fins will make a huge
difference (. I would definitely want ones that go over booties so that once
you get to shore, your feet will have some protection. (A few of the newer
fins have quick release buckles so you don't have to crawl up the beach, out
of the surf before prying off tight fin straps.)

Thanks for the great discussion and contributions...quite enlightening for
us "newbies."
