I would be interested. I'm also available Thursday and Friday.
Hi Guys:
Looking at the WAM, it appears that Sunday will have better conditions. I'm going to chance Saturday at the Breakwater. Going to park in the upper parking lot. Drive a gray Honda Accord sedan. It has roof racks with a Thule bike tray. I'm going to bring both my tanks but will only do one dive it conditions aren't "too favorable."

After seeing conditions from BW to Mcabee all the way to monastery and lobos my recommendation would be for BW. The swells are mackin! Smooth to drive over but surgy and they Occasionally land some whoopers on shore. Make sure to watch the surf for awhile before getting in the water. I would definitely not recommend Monastery to anyone this weekend.
Oh and for those diving the Carmel side...vis is pretty good offshore. We could see the bottom while passing over a 30' bottom.
Oh and keep your eyes open for whales! We saw a couple humpbacks today.

Got there at 8:30am and it really looked bad. The waves were washing up to the stairs. Talked to a young man that appeared to be with a large group. Said that visbility was about 2 feet and opened up beyond 60 feet. Not sure that conditions will be all that better tomorrow. Probably best to stay at home this weekend.

It has already laid down. We were hanging around Carmel late this afternoon and the winds had died and the swells were much much smaller. Tomorrow morning hopefully we wake up to a gorgeous day in Carmel even though we will not be diving.
Earlier in the day a guy was telling us about his ride North from Santa Barbara, and how the waves were crashing over the bow to the top of the fly bridge on his 48' Grand Banks. We tried to go to Carmel today, but turned tail and slowly made our way back into Monterey Bay only stuffing the bow a couple of times into the steep wind chop. We didn't trust the non updated 2:35am forecast that said the wind would lay down this afternoon, yet we should have.
Enjoy the nice conditions tomorrow
