I will pay attention to water temperature next time I am out. The only thing I am not sure if the water temperature changes much with depth or it's about the same because of the water movement.
There's a drop-down menu for metrics at different depths on that Nanoos site. It models temperature at the surface, 33 feet, 66 feet, and beyond. The model says temperature drops the deeper you go, but it's a relatively gradual temp change, unlike a stratified lake with a hard thermocline. I agree that I think due to the frequent water movement and upwelling around here, the ocean off our coastline doesn't have much opportunity to stabilize and form a thermocline like it can in other places.

Not sure how that was a fail.  He struggled, fought through difficult conditions, got in without assistance/rescue, and survived. 
Typical of these coddled generation(s) to label anything difficult or arduous as “failure”.

Hi adrift. I would agree with you that he struggled, fought through and survived. I'm not sure how many YouTube videos you watch but there is a whole genre of videos called "fail" videos. For example, my brothers love to watch a Friday Fail mountain biking video. The author of the posts clearly doesn't actually believe the people in the videos are failures in life or in mountain biking overall and is not saying they suck or should quit. They are awesome for trying really hard trails and really difficult jumps but in the moment, they had a failure in that they did not succeed at what they were trying to do. I respect what this kayaker was doing by being out there however, I will argue that the actions he took were a failure in that he flipped and then made a mistake or two that could have resulted in him getting injured. It worked out fine and I'm sure he learned but isn't that what's awesome about failure? So why should I shy away from identifying it as a failure as that is really where we learn most in life? As food for thought, perhaps it is being more coddled to shy away from calling some of life experiences a failure and thinking we should give everyone a trophy regardless of the outcome of their performance. I won't say that you are in that group though because I don't know you and perhaps you should reconsider calling me "coddled" as you do not know me. In the interests of maintaining respect and good relationships, I'll meet you for fishing and buy you a beer and we can both try to get through the surf without "failing", ha ha.
