This is why some of us...me included, own a smaller sailboat that can be
launched from a trailer. Since the larger ocean swells tend to bother
me, I mostly do coastal sailing in reasonably protected bays, harbours
etc. Another bonus...it's very easy to explore new waters without
sailing for a day or two just to get there.

And other of us..me included, own a larger boat so we are not confined to
