I'm going up tomorrow coming back sun night. I have an open seat, or am glad to chip in for gas if someone else has an open seat.

Size is in the eye of the beholder. For me, anything at Nitinat is usually head high, CB and the Gorge are Over-head, Pipers is Logo High, and everything on the outside coast is by Default Mast to Double Mast high. Are you starting your own measuring style like the Hawaiians, but this time to build...

Thanks, driving further to get onto a crappier road, doesn't sound like a great plan to me, so through the south side it is!

Anybody know what the road is like on the alberni side?
I'm headed out towards Bamfield this weekend, coming from vic, wondering if I should go via alberni or suck it up and do the extra 50k of logging roads.

Here's the wave model, they don't seem to be very accurate at all though, I don't see any 2.5M waves @ clover point! ;)

Colin(I believe that his name, who own Squamish Kite School) missed being ...

Winddude, this probably isn't the right venue/thread for this discussion, but I'll bite since you brought it up: 1) When did we start paying for water time?
