I know alot of us are aware of things like tides and other boats but I feel it necessary to mention this again because I saw someone get pulled out of the channel by the Harbor Patrol.

Very reliable. I guess this guy was fishing low tide in a tube and after like 20 minutes of struggling with the tide he finally quit so he was getting sucked out into the channel then ocean.
Remember to watch the tides, it is also a good idea to have an anchor with you. There are very light anchors you can buy that can dig into mud and sand.
Remember some safety equipment too. Life Vest, Strobe, Whistle,etc
This guy had nothing. His next stop would of been Catalina if the Harbor Patrol didn't stop him [cool]
Just looking out for us floating folks.
