Every wave was an outloud "f**k" for a few miles. Bow was almost straight up at times and we rode down every wave. If I turned the boat sideways, we would have went over. I'll never forget that. I've been out in Newport with 4 ft swells and it was nothing compared to that day.

Thanks for validating Jim. Nebe would know though. He's the old man of the sea with all his experience in boats on the Bay.

No boat, back in the suds.

He might not, but I know the stretch between the bridge and the Hill better than most...
south of the House on the Rock, w/ a big offshore swell. yes. It can stand up there. North of the bridge, not as much....
My point is still that you guys overestimate wave heights and wind speeds.....

In about 5 more years, if you fish every day , you will catch up with my hours of boatng experience in the bay. I lived on a boat for most of my childhood and into my teen years and have sailed on just about every nook and crany of the east and west passage. I've been kayak fishing Newport since the early 90's.. :P I've also done offshore sailing passages that Gould blow your mind. So yes, I do have a little old man of the sea in me.
