I've been on boats my whole life, and seen some pretty rough seas, but I think this would break even the toughest of boaties after a while, but fun for a while!

Great pictures.. It's amazing what's going on under the waterline with that boat hull design.

With all these guys wandering around on SUPs with cameras we could start a new sport ... ship spotting.

Every navigation marker would have a guy on a SUP with a camera, a clip board and a yellow anorak. You could spend your evenings posting pictures of ships you have seen that day. Cool!

I'll second that - I doubt any part of that would be fun though, it's that deep sinking feeling you get in your gut that tells you it's all bad.

And to think Jessica Watson went through that a couple times
