Since the rogue waves always seem to know where I am, I try to stay out of places that a triple size wave will get me. I got soaked this summer in NH on a night when the average wave was'nt even breaking and I moved to a spot on the drop that had'nt been hit for the 15 minutes that I was fishing on a rock 5 feet higher. I was on it for a minute with my jacket not buttoned up and sure enough soaked my smokes.
Stand on top of the bluff at Cuttyhunk on a clear and calm day and watch the sets come in. The difference is pretty interesting. You will push the envelope less afterwards.
