Thankfully you were prepared and are safe.
I always wear a inflatable pfd now, I hadn't thought about the ankle knife, you never know when something can happen, that was clear daylight when the swell came in.
I agree with teezer, there are places like where your friend called from, that I personally will only fish with a friend, and I normally drive my boat just be be extra sure.
This is the 3rd year in a row that on this board or another sol, that I have seen recounts of boats flipping in white water between Newport and Gooseberry. It's a challenging place to fish.
Enjoy the new boat, Donnie, always puts together excellent rigs.
