The Wave should do fine there at CK, but PLEASE go out when there is a breeze. Also note that there is a lot of water that ebbs out the deep channels (-> west) between the islands then floods in (east <-) with tide changes. All the islands there have a shoal side and a deep-water side. It is fun to hunt for them.

Note true sailing story from about 1985- a fellow, girl and dog went out from CK on a Sunfish, and say they were "carried out by the tide": Three (3) days later someone found them floating helplessly and towed them back to CK, somewhat the worse for sun and wear. I still think this was very wierd... but some people really can't figure out how to make sailboats go. However, LOTS fewer sailors have died at sea very near CK in the last 50 years (0), than stinkboaters (~25), or inhabitants of fragile aluminum flying machines that were temporarily in the air off the end of the airstrip before crashing (maybe 25), including 2 friends of mine. A Dangerous business - not-sailing!
