RE: The Green House
When I used to surf there with my little brothers in the 70's
we always called it O'Neill's house. Recently I saw Jack O'Neill on
tv exulting about the Marine Sanctuary legislation. It looked like
like he was standing on the balcony of the green house.
Does anybody know, is this still the one-eyed Jack's house?

For all those out there considering a Surfari to Southern Africa......

When in Jeffery's Bay don't forget to check out Seal Point at Cape St 
Francis about 30 km's South of J-Bay. It will often be the only place 
working in the wider vicinity. The village is peaceful with a nice
campground; unlike the burgeoning commercialism affecting J-Bay. This year 
the South African Inter-University Surf competition was based here. By all 
accounts it was a great success.

I was there on Monday, 2 November and had some great rides on waves up to 
about 5 Ft at times. There were only another 4 people in the water and the 
peaks were providing both lefts and rights. The water was colder than I was 
used to in Durban - it required the wearing of a full wet suit for about an 
hour and half of surfing.

We had another shark attack yesterday, 11/5/92, at Kehau beach about a
mile past Makaha on the leeward coast of O'ahu.  This attack unfortunately
was fatal.  An 18 year old bodyboarder was attacked clear water, about 30 
feet offshore in less than 5 feet of water at approximately 9:45 am.  A
large, unidentified shark bit the victim on the leg removing flesh and bone
about the knee area.  The victim made it to shore where he collapsed.  He
was pronounced dead upon arriving at the emergency clinic, probable cause
of death was loss of blood due to severed arteries in the leg.  A limited
shark hunt is underway.

  Well, the swell and the wind came together today to make
for great conditions here in the Oxnard/Ventura area.  
Swell is out of the west with at least double overhead sets.
Wind is out of the east at about 15-20 kts.  Though work 
and family commitments didn't permit me to have a 
lunch surf, I did watch for about 45 min.  
   Best moves were by some professional bodyboarders 
in town for the Bud Lite Pro this week.  
(for you spongers out there it was the Kauai Classic team) 
They were ripping it up.  One boarder hit the lip on 
a *big*  close-out and got launched about 20 ft in front
of the wave.  I saw a lot of standup barrels being made.  
All in all a great way to spend lunch.  (nice thing about 
living here, is even if I miss a great day like today, 
I'll catch it next time.)

I have seen similar footage except it was in the Antartic (you know - near
Bells in winter :-) ). Also in the footage I saw it wasn't a baby seal
it was some MOTHER seal or something. A big black (bad :-)) orca came
screaming out of the water and skated along the ice shelf before chomping
this seal. It came across the ice at least a couple of body lengths. It
is one of the most frightening things I have ever seen. 

Apparently there are very few recorded orca attacks on humans: 
(I may stand to be corrected here: it is just something out of my dim memory)
there have been a few on the ice shelf where it is conjectured that the person 
on the ice was mistaken for a seal. Think about that next time you are 
sunbathing between sessions :-) Seriously though when I was surfing near
these things, although I was in awe of their size I felt quite safe. 
Nevertheless a friends Mum was quite shaken after a few orcas had followed 
her on a windsurfer for more that a Km until she sailed into an area of 
moored boats. Perhaps they just wanted to play toss the seal ? ===:-|

I didnt catch Nigels surf ritual because we have only got a 3-4 day retention
period on the postings. So this ritual might be the same as Nigels so skip
it if it seems familiar.

The Ritual must take place on the beach (or sand dunes) where the crew have 
decided on surfing the next morning. Normally the best break for miles.

The night starts of with the gathering of fire wood and the quick trip to the
bottle shop so when the night starts everything you need will be within crawling
distance (and at the end of the night that is about all one is capable of!).

The Bonfire gets arc'ed up when the sun goes down and this is generally when the
main crew arrives. From this point until the throbbing headache the next morning
is normally just a blur which is probably better than remembering what went on
as you wake up next to a German Shepard! But seriously the party is the biggest
ingredient in a ritual and the better the party the better the surf the next
morning.

The other parts which make up the surf ritual are also factors in the following
days surf. The burning of the board is one. That is when someones old dinged
up board gets sacrificed to Huewy by placing some burning firewood in the center
of the deck and building up a small fire. The board is then pushed out into the 
channel and taken out to sea by the rip. When this has been completed the party
continues to the early hours of the morning until you pass out about a 2 feet
away from your carefully prepared sleeping bag.

We have only had 3 fully fledged beach parties with the ritual taking a big
part in the night and 2 of the 3 times we had near perfect offshore winds and
waves the next morning. As they say, 2 out of 3 aint bad ;)

The sun is out and the evening chill

 A chilly greating from the maritimes.

   You may be shocked to see this report because it is from
 Canada but we surf here too.
   The surf was ok yesterday, 1-1.5 m with a 20km side shore
 wind which died just befor sunset (at 5:20).  There were a few
 really clean sets with some small tudes.
   The crowds...  it was prity competitive in the line up, all
 four of us.  The only thing that would deture you from going
 out was the temp., a chilly 7 deg. C or 42 F  and the water
 is only a few degrees warmer.  The temp will drop as the waves
 get bigger.  I think there is some linear relationship between
 the two.
    Time to get back to the books.
    
    In case you were wondering, we were steamers with wool underwear
  or dry suits, booties and gloves.  A hood will soon be needed, in
  a mounth.
