Nice day, but the water was like a washing machine. Churned up and running fast in both directions, lest we forget the outgoing tide carrying us out to sea. Left and right sides were in the 3' to 5' ranges.

Hope it cleans up, because there's plenty more coming.

Giving it the fair, because there were a few waves, and of course, as I was leaving with the tide dropping, it started to come up a little more in the last pic.

Beautiful sunny and warm day, slight side shore that later turned into a somewhat off shore.

"I'd like to share these too. Hope ya don't mind . . . Somewhere in the last pic is a seal ..."

"My home town. The third pic is what we used to call "Greene Africa," just up from the P#tc ..."

"@Tangerine, yep, they still do refer to it as such. Not many surf there except Mary. But s ..."

"Cool... Named for Rogers Greene and Kit Africa... Maybe you remember them from back in ..."

High-tide knee-high dribblers amid sideshore near-whitecaps.

Pic not related.

took the 12-foot SUP to the Bo in my seaplane. paid everybody in the lineup $1000 to fuck off for the morning. enjoyed solo session of occasional chest-high south-swell sets. calling it good-

ankle to knee high, glassy in am, wind on it in early pm
not much energy

The Bo' has been most Bo'-dacious Dudes and Dudettes!
Warmer than normal water temps (wore my 2/2 short sleeve), and waves all over the place in the waist to chest high ranges.

"That new SSW looks like its filling in nicely. Good news! "

Saturday AM, delayed postage.
Took a kookier friend out to the Bo'. He'd been attempting to learn on Huntington beachbreak and was amazed that surfing could be easier than that. I witnessed probably his first and second rides of any note. Felt good.

"Yup. Started at Jack's house, paddled north. Stopped when I got to a clean break. Happe ..."

Best laid plans for surfing today were gone this morning.

Arrived as the few dawn patrollers were leaving, and saw nothing but a glassy rock exposed area to the right, and a sucking tide to the left that was best for the surf schools that would be gearing up later on for their white water lessons.

"Take it if you can get it. "

"Looks like a chill day at BOBO"

Not Bolinas - a nice sandy beach north of that one great big, geologically important point created by the San Andreas fault (granitic material on one side, coastal sediments on the other). thigh to chest high, glassy through the afternoon, got a few 30 to 50 yard lefts and rights with enough push to get a small, wide board going. bunch of old timers out on logs. Also spotted a nice dolphin couple cruising around a couple hundred yards offshore. fair enough for me.

"I get your (continental) drift!"

Much of the same as last week, but with less swell action. Beautifully sunny and warm, although the water was a bit chilled, but we got used to it.

Lots of surf campers in the water. I counted approximately 40. But hey, I wish they had these surf camps when I was younger. Looks like fun.

"WG- agreed, always good to be at the beach. Is that your Jaime Murray board? I'm just got ..."

From the heat of the summer equinox, to the fog, wind, and 10 to 15 degree difference, the ocean was trying to produce. The waters were delicately textured for her pleasure, and maybe yours too, with long waits between pulses, but when they did arrive, they were only slightly above the waist at times.

The resultant youngsters frolicking with their surf camps in the surf and on the beach made for slightly crowded close to shore encounters. However, the outside was the place to put your log into. Either on the left, where the interval was very long, or the right that eventually produced some consistent ocean ribs.

"Hey! Looks like surfing to me. Smooth water, lines out the back, a bonafide wall. Pretty s ..."

"Thanks for the pic Wave Glider! It was fricken cold but fun out there."

This is the farthest north spot on SR but I'm actually north of Marin at a well known sharky spot on the Sonoma coast. Waves are pretty poor here. Winds are fairly light but things are blown out. It's about WH to SH with some random nuggets popping up sporadically. The weather is absolutely epic and the beach is sparsely populated. It's nice to venture out of the City every once in awhile.

A beautiful day at the beach for sunbathing, swimming, strolling, and water skiing, or simply paddling around for exercise. Not much else to report, other than it was warm too.

The picture pretty much sums up the conditions for the 3 hours we were there. No crowds, no traffic, etc, etc, etc. BTW, itʻs 3/2mm wetsuit time.
