Great advise, you wont see me out there until I know what i'm doing as far as safety and all that. Thats why I am looking for help from you guys on how to approach this. I have been on kayaks for fun many times in the harbor but just the basic ones for paddling around.

I would recommend getting comfy in the bay first then try heading out of the jetty into open water to get a feel. Once you feel comfortable and stable on your new platform, attempt some dry runs with surf launch without your gear.
