wha Wha WHAT !?!?

There’s a little swell ?!?

This morning, more than a few of us with OC1’s were thinking “hmm, maybe should have brought the boat and called in late to work …”.

Fueled with new found bravado after Sunday’s huli-drills, we sent both crews out the inlet to what we thought would be a flat morning to start getting ready for Lanakila Iki Ocean Challenge !!

Well, there was No wind, but, a small swell was pushing around making for some fun out and backs and a major uphill grind back through the inlet into a still crushing outgoing tide!!!

Ultimately , it was LOTS of fun out there, great driving from Heather and Chase and good teamwork and grinding from everyone , and , welcome back to Lezlie Biro !!!

As always, we are eternally grateful to Marine Industries Association of Palm Beach County for our grant that has been immeasurable to the club’s growth in the community and our ability to support the first responder community through our partnership with the incredible Saddle and Sea Foundation !

Check this out !!

Champion SUP paddler, PBC fireman, and now PBOCC member Jake Portwood gets recognized for the top rescue of the year!!!

Of us!

There were 6 of us, just some gung-ho club members who ventured out to go surf one of our Bradley OC6’s on a nice overcast clean 4ft day.

We had a few rides and it was all going fine until we zigged when we shoulda zagged and took the break of one wave over the back of the canoe and pow! we were 5 men (and a woman) in a tub !

We didn’t huli but we were fully swamped and couldn’t bail our way out of it, believe me, we tried, but wave after wave kept refilling any efforts.

Finally we managed to get the canoe north and east and outside of the break, we huli’ed it over and back and finally were able to bail it out enough to start paddling again.

We were coming in on the north side of the inlet over that sandbar there, and thought we were well on our way to make it back on our own. We saw the rescue jet ski coming out and even signaled to them that we were OK, right when a set wave jacked up and completely swamped us again! 

It was a bit of a mess, two of us were separated from the canoe (they bailed!) and we’re picked up on the sled before the guys came back to secure the canoe to the jet ski and tow us back in to Dubois.

The whole thing didn’t last very long, but the skill and precision and efficiency of the rescue was outstanding, absolutely deserving of this award.

We’ve learned a few things since then about surfing the big canoes, and we’ve now made a bunch of great relationships with a bunch of great people in the fire department as well as Ocean Rescue now being part of them.

Wherever you are, support your first responders, hopefully you never need them but if you do, you’ll be grateful that they train for everything, every day , even an open ocean rescue of a full OC6 crew !

Congrats and mahalo guys!
