Sandy Point Shorts

I took one for the team yesterday when I didn't rig up and take on the unexpectedly brilliant conditions at Sandy Point. (Mind you I did get my fill the day before - when I had the place all to myself.) August is very early in the season for a brilliant Sou'Wester and this combined with an early afternoon low tide meant the conditions at The PiT could only be described as "Champagne Sandy Point". Here are a couple of clips for those who couldn't make it.

Cam resigned to watching and providing moral support.
