I'll take a good look at the waves before I haul the yak down especially before hauling the wifes down (no ocean yak experience (yet)  . Is Dana point more like San Diego Bay behind a jetty? Anyways thanks again for the tips.

San Clemente wave make LJ look like the kiddie pool

. So don't think it's anything like it. You will have to time it right and

like hell. Strap and store everything you have or it's gone. Good luck and take care. Also Dana is a 15 min drive up the 5 and you can launch Baby beach (like the bay) then paddle to the bait barge get good bait and go outside into the big water or stay inside if the swell sucks. Another big plus is I've never been skunked there

. So the wife may have a little more fun.
Just my 2 cents.
