Temp holds near 50 most of the year, depth varies with tide. At tides below 2 ft it becomes unrideable. On outgoing tides, be careful about going out in to the main river. The jetties are just around the corner; if you get swept in to the bar at low tide you'll be killed if the Coast Guard doesn't get to you in time. Shocked

It was 8m until the sun went down and plenty of water. When it got dark my fins grabbed some sand here and there so hung it up. There were shifts all day, when I rigged Sparky was just getting done. The starboard boost a torium is epic right now. Looks like the same setup today! Git it.

Here's an oldie from 06, Ben!! Legend

Was that you just coming in when we were all leaving??? Shit, I talked to you and didn't even introduce myself! Too funny! Glad you got some!

Sorry I didn't offer you a toss up. I didn't notice you rigging for a self launch until you actually launched. I thought you were still just rigging up. Anyways, you had it well in hand! Very Happy
