For those mornings when getting up at 4:30 to launch a kayak in the ocean for a few hours feels *excessive* :)

That dude is mentally tough. But for sure a screw loose. Paddling naked across the ocean.

He was rotting in them, they were so saturated with salt they would never dry out. He's one tuff somabitch....:paddleersmilie:

I bet this guy has never lost a staring contest.....never.

I paddled out of DP harbor last year and paddled out a couple miles (I think). then fished for a couple hours. (skunked) Then paddled back up wind and up current for what seemed like a week. I can't imagine paddling for more than couple hours straight.

Pretty dedicated, but personally, I'd rather go down to Baja, or even Panama.

In the grand scheme of things, if you are going to paddle nekkid, thats the place to do it....
