Nice video and what a great day. I'm a local with a sailboat in Friday Harbor and know Cattle Pass all too well. Across on the Lopez side in a good West wind coming in the Straits, you get swell built up in Davis Bay that makes it downright nasty. Especially on an ebb! I've paddled from Anacortes to the top of Vancouver Island and never saw more adventure as what we used to get under the Golden Gate Bridge back when I was teaching for Sea Trek in Sausalito. Those swells would come in off the Pacific, and if they were hitting a winter ebb, you'd get pretty giant waves around the bridge pilings and only the strong of heart and skill would dare go out and play in them. Bunch of those guys were whitewater guides on the American River in the summer, and so had solid rolls. As only a sea kayaker I didn't come up quite as fast, but always came up!

@@joshgrey324 of course! It’s the Jackson Levitor camera mount. I believe you can only get one directly from them.
