    You should've gone out anyways- It would've been just for that one rogue wave, remember?

    Sooooo. . .

    a surf report for the Great Lakes would necessarily include a full schedule of major shipping freight carriers as the most reliable predictor of incoming swells, right? That, and you'd have to include tonnage for each of the carriers because that would make a difference. You know, water displacement and all.

    No. great Lake surfers dont rely on ships, they rely on fetch just like us, just not on such a large scale.... i think
