I don't know if these people are made of steel? or silly puddy?
This is extreme, and even with the latest of safety and weather
equipment, it lookslike a good way to get killed.
I can't imagine the guys doing this kind of stuff a couple-three

I heard 22 foot Baliners can run full speed through that.
I mean, hell, I used to row out to Cat Island from Fort Sewell in my
ten foot Butler pram in that kind of weather.
