This guy does this often, but it is amazing neither him or the photographer had vests on, and it was a 20' plus day. https://www.instagram.com/p/BeKCR4fnyRu/?r=wa1

No PFD's and the one fellow was entranced with his I-phone totally unconcerned and pre occupied from observing the conditions. Those were some nasty waves for that surfing competition. Both my wife and I were busy that day. We have headed down there in the past just to look at the ocean......surfing aside. Edited by gchuba on 02/14/18 - 8:10 AM

As a fisherman you would cancel for that day. Pretty obvious from pictures and comments from others that the boat should not have been out there. Nothing to do with the running of the boat....operator stupidity. Very very lucky no loss of life. I hope all is well with you. Garris Edited by gchuba on 04/28/18 - 12:07 PM

Great video. There are a couple bars a mile offshore of the Ocean City MD that get a good break after a storm. It’s sort of tempting to go in and ride one sometimes but not worth being “that guy”.
