The trip has been great. We´ve had some heavy rain at times but the open sea crossing wasn´t nearly as bad as it could have been. I kept thinking of the storms that send south swells to California often end up heading right into Patagonia before blasting themselves out over the Andes. We only had about 6-8 feet of open ocean swell. There were a few moments when Hedda and I both thought we might get tossed out of our bunks, but we made it through allright. The scenery has been spectacular though monotonous at times. Eventually we wound our way through to some of the narrowest passages you can imagine. The ship was zig zagging through these channels practically fishtailing while everyone on deck closely watched the rocks and kelp pass by just yards away from the edge of the ship.

Awhile back I lifted an old board Greg Mungall had lying around in his glass shop. It was a 1982 6'2" Twinny called "Hooks, Wings and Things." The surf had been small so I figured I'd clean the dust off and get the old beater wet to see how she went. I ended up surfing the board in one foot HB, 6'-8' Newport Point and everything in between. Thus began my love affair with Twin Fins.
