for the safety and and well being of others . ya i can chuckle about it becuase i did not get hurt . i really could not afford to get injured because my work would be affected . the smart thing would have been to launch down the street at leo and make the 1 mile paddle . the regulars with a lightly encumbered ocean kayak make it look so easy
. but you know the spot is hot when you are paddling in and there is 10 surfers in your landing zone . excellent post jorge .
