Re: Not so obvious..perhaps

The researchers are almost all young, idealistic, and lubbers. So what they usually come up with is breakfast (or lunch, if the morning tide isn't cooperative). The water in the area is notoriously bumpy, even in good weather. Has to do with the exceptionally long fetch of the Pacific.

Hint to lubbers: If you must eat before going out on the ocean for the first time, have a banana or two and water, nothing else. Bananas are the only food that tastes the same coming up as it did going down. (Strangely, I heard the same thing from a former Blue Angles pilot about twenty years after my Uncle gave me the advice).
