It looks rough to me when that sheriff's boat is throwing spray like that.
Mike (November Charlie) compared to what you ran in I know those pictures are like a still Pond! I met a young man at a family party last weekend, he is in the USCG and just got transfered from New England to Kodiac Alaska. I wonder if you know him his last name is Bareuther, his grandfather is married to my Mother in Law. I know the USCG is big so the odds would be pretty slim if you knew him.

That Kid is going to see some Rough Waters off Kodiak. Lot's of the Kodiak Coasties business is around the NW Corner and westward from the island.
I've never owned a boat big enough to challenge those waters.

He sure is he just got up there this past Wednesday. He is going to be on a USCG Cutter for 45 days on and 45 off. I imagine that he will get his share of cold! He is full of p*ss and vinager he was really excited about working in Alaska. He is real young and very energetic. His sister is also in training with the USCG she has sailed a few large sailboats (crewed) around the world at 15 years old. They both are really on the ball they lived in the US Virgin Islands most of their life. Their mom is a doctor and it's strange I don't remember their Mom but we both graduated from the same high school the same year. It's a small world.

Keep in mind that in these pictures one is seeing the effect of the smallcraft's riding through broken water. All that spray doesn't mean uncomfortable or unusual conditions. Just another day on the water. Everyday is not a hot calm summer day. Enjoy the Moment!
