Known Issues

Posts created in portrait mode automatically rotate to landscape mode. This is something across Lemmy that seems to be known. To address, the image must have the correct metadata, not just rotated in your camera roll before uploading.

Buried the rail shortly after this photo. Made it through just fine!

It was eerie how calm the water was while facing that front.

If you look closely you can see a water spout forming.

What was the wind speed through there?

Got a bit gusty and we took both reefs just before this photo ahead getting into the storm.

Probably gusted up to 20 kts or so. Sustained about 15 from memory.
