Robert,

I will be at the LaPush Pummel and would be willing to give it a test if 
conditions aren't too hairy.  If it's really big I'll stay in my 
surfboat.  You should take your boat up to some of the sheltered spots on 
the Strait this winter.  The waves tend to be clean and come in very 
definite set often 5 to 10 minutes apart.  It would be a good place for 
checking out the boat on a big long period wave as long as you found a spot 
clear of other conventional surfers.

Conditions yesterday would have been ideal.  Waist high sets with a 
shoulder to head high set coming in every 10 minutes, glassy calm and only 
me and one other surfer.  Bliss...

Best,

Thomas

I may wander down to the LaPush pummel to see if anyone would be willing to
try the boat out so I can get feedback. Frankly I personally am no longer in
good enough shape to feel comfortable in the ocean surf at LaPush in the
winter unless it is calmer than average.
