Could you please enlighten me where to get these reports?
I am planning on a little Catalina jaunt Sat., don't want to have a repeat of my ill-fated one in 1994...
In a nutshell, I thought I was more manly than a "small craft advisory" , went out to Avalon, spent the night on the boat, cracked the hull on my '76 Apollo right down the stringer and ended up limping back to Newport at a hell of a list.... What an adventure, and thank goodness for insurance!

CA Stuthe weather channel is a good start this is the one I use for local waters and long range fishing.

I'll be scratching out at San Onofre about 6:00am to catch some over head sets and then it's off to the Harbor House in Dana Point for breakfast.
