Cataract surgery has me sidelined for a bit.
I get to watch my Cape Cod Crew do their thing from the dune.

Love this crew, some of them I have been surfing with for over 50 years!

Amazing how Cape Cod can be double overhead while it's knee high in NH.  I wish some of those swells would make it up here.   8)

Scale is 8" x 8".  Smallish but yes you can put it on a stool and balance your SUP, foil board whatever.  The key is having the readout off to the side.  And the small size is better for stowing away.
