Paddler
Guy wants to paddle from Monterey, CA to Hawaii, following in Ed Gillet's accomplishment from the80s (see https://www.canoekayak.com/touring-kayaks/gillet/), but he doesn't get far? I've paddled Monterey area a decent amount and can't understand how you could get caught near shore. There aren't many currents, and weather reports will tell you if the winds are too strong. Shaking my head in wonder. of course, shaking my head in wonder as to why anyone would want to kayak to Hawaii...
