DanaPt,
I just read in another thread you have a motor. That negates what I posted earlier. With your motor you become a motor vessel, complete w/ boat registration requirements (CF#'s) and are NOT allowed to launch where ever you like. You need to be at a launch ramp, or legal beach launch (like La Jolla). Not saying you won't be able to launch from beaches, you just won't be doing it legally.

Don't ruin it for the rest of us, ok?

This issue is 10yo at least when a certain QM wanted to launch his FnD w/ motor from a Doheney beach. 9-10 times you can probably get away w/ it, but that 1 time will give a lot of other kayakers a black eye.

Good luck,

Z
