Man, those aerial shots are shocking.

A 2 foot surge doesn't sound like much but for someone on a Kayak the drawing out of the water and rush back in may be more than one wants to risk.

Those boys had a hell of network going on offering up there homes on higher ground to their fellow brothers of the water ,was good to see all went well for them on the islands

This Tsunami was not a big deal on the SoCal coast. They were only forcasting 2 - 3 feet tidal swings on a day that would otherwise have had very little. Just had to keep yourself out of inlets to harbors, marinas, coves etc. I saw a similar thing today Bob. When we landed, I came in first about 15 minutes ahead of my buddies. I landed 4 -5 feet higher up the beach (a good 40 - 50 feet away on a steep beach) than them. A sailboater passed by me and said he could not even motor out of the harbor entrance due to the flow.

do whatever you want but please do not call for help and tax dollar assitance if you find yourself in the suck.
