+5 that is just nuts to begin with ... not to mention all the rocks and the torn up landing dock.

To go out in that wind chopped water full of white caps and high swells regardless of what brand or model kayak. It is not just not wise, it is right down stupid! As quoted above in the video there where a lot of jagged rock formations and falling apart dock. That guy was just lucky not to get hurt. Just my $.02

That's not a "how to be safe video" that's more like how to be a stupid moron video!!

Why would you launch in those conditions? That looked like 30 miles an hour winds. Even the guy on the boat was smart enough to pack up and go home!
