“What can we do with the western coast, a coast of 3,000 miles, rockbound, cheerless, uninviting, and not a harbor on it? What use have we for such a country? I will never vote one cent from the public treasury to place the Pacific Ocean one inch nearer”
~Daniel Webster (American Statesman, Senator and Orator, 1782-1852)
Well...actually, there weren't any surfers on the west coast then...so maybe he can be excused.

so then when did the wave farmer(s) move in?
as i understand it the wave farmers moved in around the 1840's and had created a solid tilth in the ocean by time surfing took hold here...so much well groomed water that has not been surfed in much is why its so great here...unfortunatly, as of late the wave farmers probably think its too cold and cloudy to get out and do any real work...
