I'm headed to the Oregon Coast and SF Bay area in March for some
much-needed family vacation time.  I actually talked my sweet wife into
giving me permission to bring not only one, but two kayaks along. 
Kayak surfing on the OR coast, and sea kayaking in SF Bay.

Did your wife take the photo you posted on the Kayak Techniques BBS of
you and the Munchkin (tm) scoping the break?  That was a _very_ nice
photo.

Thanks for the heads-up for me to tell the dear wifey to use the full
zoom setting, and take pictures of me moving.  (Not necessarily
surfing--my first time kayak surfing will probably have a lot of
carnage, but moving nevertheless).

Then again, she may not want to sit on the beach while I inhale salt
water, and then I can make up stories, since there will be no
photographic evidence that I may have exited my boat.

I tried kayak surfing behind a ski boat this summer and to give her due
credit, my wife actually took some very nice photos.  The boat, an old
Pirhouette, was subpar though.
