4 14 15 morning call

Got a new gopro and here's a shot I took yesterday. I guess the mouth mount makes the most sense when you get barreled, but at least you see a bit of a wall. Lahaina was weak and the onshore come up quite early.
 

 

 

 
Things you do when you don't have a drone (and you have a floaty backdoor).
 


Wind map shows a decent fetch that will give life to a swell that should reach 7f 11s between Monday and Tuesday.




MC2km wind map at noon shows the usual strong offshore wind. Very unreliable at Kanaha from this direction.



Buoys
NW
7.6ft @ 10s from 81° (E)
5.6ft @ 7s from 146° (SE)

Pauwela
7.2ft @ 9s from 83° (E)           
3.6ft @ 5s from 85° (E)

Lanai
4ft @ 8s from 171° (S)           
2.4ft @ 14s from 189° (S)

Windswell is predominant in size (at least on an east facing beach), but south swell hanging in there too.
