Don't forget the Sardines! Every one of my Dodos had at least 5 sardines in their bellies!

just rigged up something custom to use the pick up tube, as the Hobie tank does not work with the aka brace in the way. The over the side pump tends to ski at 7 kts.

I don't know where "going to the 267" is but if that is where the "dodo's" are, I'd like to know how far I need to paddle?

good luck.

Is this within range for me to follow

fsuindustries · 09-12-2012, 04:44 PM

By the lookotis the location on the map that looks pretty far out there, how far of a paddle would you say that is?

Iceman · 09-12-2012, 04:55 PM

Further than I care to paddle or pedal. 12 miles SW..........I am hoping for enough breeze to do minimal pedaling.

Last trip we went out about 11 miles from DP

dc1983 · 09-12-2012, 05:03 PM

I'll head north and look for Hali's then

Since my mirage drive is DOA, can Andy or Steve tow me out and back!

dc1983 · 09-13-2012, 12:32 PM

How was your trip Andy

Iceman · 09-14-2012, 10:32 AM

We made it to the 267, 13.5 miles SW of the harbor. Poked around out there, found 1 little paddie right on the numbers, nothing but molas under it. LONG day and 35+ miles logged on the AIs. Planned to be back around 5 PM ended up being 9pm as we were getting soaked pointed at the harbor, so headed more East the NE and ended up off San Clemente!

Fun adventure, water got REAL blue, only life we found were porpoise and molas. Did see some sauries galloping more than once, but no boiling jumpers.
