LOL, if you understand tsunami, you'd know she was safer out to sea than on land.
I wonder how long it will be before the California Child Protective Services swoop down on the family?
Just for the record, I would not have allowed any of my kids (under 18 to do this without me along or another sailor, of age). Anything you let your children do or you do for your children is under scrutiny by the nanny state until they are 18. That’s not the reason I wouldn’t have let my kids go, safety and not of adult age are the reasons. Even if they were of adult age I’d still worry my arse off, but 18 is the age of “adulthood”.
