It was another wild morning! \u00a0The girls wanted the challenge again and today was just that. \u00a0Much bigger and a lot windier than yesterday. \u00a0They were so excited! \u00a0I wasn’t because my eyes were still burning from the past few days of strong salty wind blowing into my face. \u00a0Haha.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

So happy to arrive a usually crowded beach that for now we have to ourselves. \u00a0Sometimes I forget how beautiful it is.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I looked down and saw the boat that capsized yesterday smashing against the rocks. \u00a0It will be another day or so until they can safely salvage it. \u00a0But I’m sure it’s in hundreds of pieces by now.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Looking at this photo, the waves seem manageable. \u00a0But it’s pretty hard. \u00a0I timed the wave intervals and it was 3 seconds between wave to wave. \u00a0Getting out took 50 waves rolling over your head. \u00a0Pretty cool to see the girls getting stronger and stronger. \u00a0Now they look comfortable out there in a very uncomfortable place.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The waves have so much power. \u00a0It just pushes you from one wave into another. \u00a0So connecting the waves was the way to success.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

When I first got to the capsized boat, the first thing I asked was “is everyone accounted for?” \u00a0The reason is I knew the boat was full of people but didn’t know how many were aboard. \u00a0So asking if everyone is accounted for is important. \u00a0You don’t want to start rescuing people if some are missing. \u00a0The second thing I asked was “can you all swim?” \u00a0They answered yes. \u00a0I told them to jump in the water now and start swimming to the channel. \u00a0They had no idea that the strong current was taking the boat right into the lineup at Bowls. Less than 5 minutes later, the boat getting pounded by waves and ended up on the reef. \u00a0 The last place you want to be is on a capsized boat that’s about to get smashed by a hundred waves. \u00a0I’m surprised nobody got hurt because so many things could have gone wrong…<\/p>\n
