Yeah, the problem with Westport is that it's too easy to guess the conditions wrong. You have to estimate BEFORE you go out what you're getting when you come back. If you go out in 3 foot waves and it's up to 6 or 7 a few hours later when you come back, you're SOL.
That's what happened to us when we went around Gooseberry and got clobbered on the way back. So, it's hard to say whether they simply
were too optimistic on the way out as to what they would get on the way in, or they were too confident in their boat handling capabilities.
Have to wait for more info to tell.
