I will have to agree that in the case of going out into the ocean, bigger is just better. The difference between a 10' and a 12' might only be a few feet but when you are out there in open water it will give you just so much more peace of mind. I started out going open water with a 9'er and man, I never ever felt at ease. But now that I am in a longer and much more stable ride, I can relax more and have fun....because really that's what you want when you are out there. To have peace of mind and have fun.

Get a roof rack, its not that hard to load, and if you do have troubles there's plenty of ingenius ways to get the job done if you ask around.
