Paddle 32 Warsash to Calshot Spit

A SW wind gusting F6 led to a mix of wave shapes and heights as it blew against the tide running out of Southampton water and over the various depth changes.  We had flat water, long sinusoidal waves 4 feet high, vertical faced waves from 1 foot to 5 foot and plenty of foam.
As I only had my handheld camera I didn't take pictures in the bigger waves, I know there is a tendency for wave height to be measured as accurately as fisher men can judge "the one that got away" but there were plenty of times when Rob and his paddle were completely hidden from view.
