This thread has gone twilight zone geography.
If you get out to the red whisler buoy off the point you are at the outside edge of the point kelp bed. Theres a diagonal strip there back toward the harbormouth too as you paddle out in 40 to 60 ft. The buoy is @ about 60. The kelp contours the coast from the point knob up to Monarch @ 40 -60+ in the shape of a 3 w both ends and the middle [Creek] having structure extending out farther that grows kelp. Landmarks are red buoy (point, headland whatever), Strands beach, Salt Creek point (Ritz), Creek Kelp, Monarch point.

California to Maui
How about San Diego paddler Ed Gillet's solo paddle from Monterey to Maui? 2200 miles and 64 days alone with no support. Long ways to paddle a tandem kayak.
There was a story in Sea Kayaker (I think) about his adventure a while back. I copied the article and have read it many times. |

[QUOTE=King Saba;268656]What kayak do you have? A wider kayak is harder to paddle than a narrower one.
Yeah I have a Vibe Sea Ghost 13' by 33" wide and chose it to be able to stand when I start fresh water fishing so Im paying the price. Its only 75lb but still not streamline. |
