Can someone please go and sail Makaha and make the most of what I am missing out on, sitting at my desk all day?!

Good winds and a big easterly swell, should be awesome.

went there from 10amish till about 12:30ish. Three of us out. Wind was ultra light on the inside but pretty strong on the wave. I was overpowered on a 5.4 at times.

Not entirely sure what the exact wave size was but I saw a couple of waves from the front as I was sailing out while someone was on the wave and it was easily mast and a half and barrelling. Awesome sight. I think I might have to nail one of those GoPros to my head so I have video / photos evidence next time around.

The wind swung around more to the west around 12:00 and it was really too off shore to be any good.
