I've kayaked a few hundred yards out late at night a few times when fricked up. I was once bumped by something large and I haven't gone out at night since then.

Do you float?


I can actually walk in water and I can swim. I am not Michael Phelps, but its not like I go in water and can't do anything.

Surfed Pleasure Point in Santa Cruz after watching football all day and night two years ago. About 11:30 paddled out just past the kelp bed, semi full moon so you could see no problem. Had a great time but there were three of us about 200 yards from the beach. We stayed together as much as we could to just give each other shite. When two went on a wave and you were out by yourself it was really creepy. Felt like someone/thing was watching. i sobered up quick.

I hope you're kidding about the Sharks. Bulls are out there right now.

Can you control your bowels? I'd hate for you to lose control in a public swimming pool.

I've done it quite a few times. I used to go surfing. The only time it was creepy was if the moon wasn't out or if you got held down by a wave.

I'd imagine a huge danger is boats not being able to see you. I'd imagine the chances are low but if someone was boating in the area, they'd never see you.

I'm calling bullshite.

I believe the story, but pretty sure you were a loser 10 years ago.

ETA:. I've done it, would do it again.
