Jet Skier Saves Surfers from Great White Patrolling Lineup at Mavericks

[Rustymuscle]

Even on a sunny day with waves only in the 10-20ft. range; the break at Mavericks is a dark and scary place. The waves are formed by seamounts and other bathymetric features located well below the surface and it takes a big swell to create waves that will break in the deep cold water. The paddle out is no joke and one most certainly doesn’t want to get washed up into Boneyards or anywhere near Mushroom Rock. Those two areas have some crazy stories to back them up. Those are for another time. This is just to give the reader some background information about the spot and why it’s a big deal that the surfers were able to be rescued.
