(CANCELLED) …Chasing Jacks in the surf 2016-11-12

September 12, 2016November 12, 2016"Puck" 13 Comments

All,

Talked to Denis who is down at PINS.  South beach is closed at Malaquite due to heavy winds blowing the tide into the beach.  Looks like the front has not blown through as hoped.  Denis said the conditions are so bad he is heading home.  Talked to Paul, too.  We decided to call a no go and cancel the trip.  Sorry.

Thanks
Ron Mayfield
