Sruf Launching a Hobie - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

It's decent size but doable this morning for the rental yaks. Maybe 50% of them dumped it once. Funny thing is the rental shop leader dude who helped everyone get out was last to go. He made it out on his fifth attempt. Watching him from a distance, once he made it out 2/3's (almost there), he slowed (probably tired) and once your yak stops in surf break zone, the decent sized waves were grabbing him like a surfboard and would ride him in until he dumped it each time.

Keep that yak pointed straight and moving forward or it's yard sale time...
