Re: Ocean safe?
As the owner of the boat you are not only responsible for yourself, but for the lives of your passengers. In the case of an accident it will be you, and you alone, that has to answer for your actions. No one here will be by your side to help, or to take responsibility for any of their “Go For It” responses.
The photos of the wild & crazy shots from deejaycee are for the most part race or competition events, and as such are close to shore, and with all the professional assistance that come with such events. These are people with alot of experience in such conditions, and there are still accidents. In the races I have seen, it is not uncommon to see flipped boats, not something you really want to do offshore alone. Anything on board, could or will be lost. Diving equipment is not cheap, neither are lives.
Don't confuse organized near shore race events, with independent offshore diving trips. The one, has nothing to do with the other.
All that said, if you are a risk taker, or an adrenaline junky, there are few other sports that offer the same rush, for the cost. But like all extreme sports, that rush comes at a price.
