Stuck in Oxnard

Carl came down and we had a nice trip up to Oxnard and then we got stuck, he waited for a couple of days then flew home.
I've been here for ten days waiting for a weather window to go north and I can't get one, I need one day (8hrs) to go anchor at Coho anchorage near Pt. Conception then a day (13hrs) to run up to San Simion to anchor and another day (12hrs) to get to Montery and I can't seem to get more than two days between storms that are less than 10' swells and some days heve had as much as 30'+ swells.
Sattilite images of the Pacific show one storm after another for the next two weeks so I just rented a slip for a month.
I did survive the Tsunami, we had a tidal surge in the harbor here. It was really strange, we had about a 4 to 5kt current running out of the harbor and the depth at Pacific Corinthian YC dock went down to 6.9ft before it started to come back in, 10 minutes later the depth had come up to 9.3ft. That is almost a 2 1/2' change in 10 minutes. That was the biggie then we had a couple small tidal changes where you could see the current change direction. In Long Beach harbor the news showed pictures of some boats that were aground at the low point of the surge and the Coast Guard closed LA harbor to ship traffic because the water got so low.
Well so much for all of my excitement, back to sitting here and hurry up and wait!
