Is the Pillar Point report a good measure of what is actually happening
in the harbor? If not, by what factor is it off, +/-?

  Oh, yah, the ocean temps on the coast are *cold*. A full winter wetsuit
  required. Hood & booties aren't a bad idea either. While sailing
  in those low temps, if you suddenly can't remember your home address
  and social security number, time to take a warm-up break! :^)
