Protecting electronics in the Surf?
How much of a beating can a typical GPS/FF take during a surf launch or beaching. I.E i loose it and over the kayak goes. Are most of you using a quick disconnect and stowing them in a drybox while still in calmer waters?
Been watching the LJ Webcam a bit much. |

I keep my electronics stowed away during launch and landing. As soon as i pass the break or yellow markers i get all my electronics geared up.

smart thing do to is to pack it until you clear the surf and pack it going in.
