RE: Never a Good Sign When the Coast Guard is 'Looking' For Someone

See, knowing how I typically react, I would probably just flip onto my back and let the current take me wherever it wants until it dies out. Then I'd work on swimming back to shore.
But it's probably better to swim out of it before it sweeps you out to sea.

I've been in a rip so wide I had no choice but to go for a ride, no getting out. Thank god for some surfers.

Whoa! How far did it take you?

Tough to tell, the breaking waves were well away from shore. It took us at least 20 minutes to paddle our way in.
