These photos are not my original work. They showed up anonymously, in
an email being circulated very broadly among the maritime community in
this area. I have placed them, only temporarily, on my photo page to
share them with the group.

There always seems to be some discussion about "wave height" in this
group. For what it's worth, the bottom of the car deck is probably
about 5-6 feet above the surface in a dead calm. Most of the waves in
these photos seem to about that sort of height.

So here's a look at a not-entirely typical day on Puget Sound (just
off of Edmonds). Our nicest summer days are slightly better than
this, :-) !
