Big Jaguar Shark Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Looking like a pretty decent surfing day. 3-4 feet @ 8 seconds. Anybody wanna go? My schedule is very flexible Thursday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbjorn Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Dustin,I might be able to join you. Did you have a time in mind?According to Magic Seaweed it looks the surf will be building in the late afternoon. Blaine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbjorn Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Sorry -- misread the forecast. Looks like the peak is early in the day, diminishing through the afternoon to 3 feet. That sounds just about right to this out of shape surfer.Blaine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Jaguar Shark Posted May 14, 2012 Author Share Posted May 14, 2012 From what I saw it looked like 6ft waves @ 6 seconds on Wednesday and then it would be tapering off on Thursday with a bit longer period. Hopefully that will make for better surfing. Blaine, I've got the day off so I can get out there at just about any time that's good for you.

bbjorn Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 I have the day off too so anytime works for me.Assuming we'd be launching from the Seabrook side of the bridge, it would be nice to paddle out on the ebb or slack and back on the flood. Low tide is 4:15pm. Magic Seaweed is showing wave heights at Hampton of 1.5 feet at noon, 3 feet at 6pm, so later will be better.Blaine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Jaguar Shark Posted May 16, 2012 Author Share Posted May 16, 2012 Do you want to plan to be on the water at 5:00? Current won't be too bad going out but will be quick and bumpy on the way back in. Looks like it will be windy in the beginning of the day and calming down by the time we get out there.

bbjorn Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Sure, 5:00 is good. And that time might make it possible for anyone else who's interested to join us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EEL Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Magic Seaweed is showing wave heights at Hampton of 1.5 feet at noon, 3 feet at 6pm, so later will be better. FWIW, the forecast is a little different at Swell Info (http://www.swellinfo.com/surf-forecast/hampton-new-hampshire.html) Seems consistent with Cinnamon's forecast/opinion.

Doug Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Bummer, I forgot about a 7PM appointment tonight. Have a great time everyone. Surf cam shows perfectly clean waves breaking and will build all afternoon. Sorry to miss this one. If anyone is up for Surf Saturday, let me know.Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
