This was the water on my sea trial Saturday during the Lauderdale show provided by Sandy.

It's very difficult to judge wave height on videos. Most of the time the waves look smaller on video than what they are. If this was JUST a video of the water(with no boat), I bet most people would guess these were 2-3 footers.
