Have sailed at PCB with double reds - seems it takes very little to bring them out. They seem to go with double reds quicker than other beaches we have visited. I figure if they see you trying to get out through the surf, they may call you back in, but once you are out I doubt they'll bother you. However, I have seen the Sherriff's Helicopter chase in swimmers... they may come after me! :-O [/quote]
A couple of years ago they had quite a few weak swimmers drown so they are extra conservative with the flags ever since. I know that surfers can get in the water during double-reds so they may not give you a second look unless you look like you are having an extra tough time getting through the surf.
You should be OK this weekend as they are only forecasting a small bump in the surf. It will probably stay yellow flag all weekend. Just be sure to keep a vigilant eye out for thunderstorms as there will probably be plenty of them popping up throughout the weekend.
I will more than likely be out on my paddleboard all weekend at the state park. Enjoy the long weekend and welcome to PCB.[/quote]
