I sailed down that coast in a F8 a few years ago. Some seriously large waves. A little nerve racking at the time?

There have been gale warnings for Finisterre/Fitzroy from all official forecast entities for the past week or so: AeMet/Coruna, UKMet/Niton, MeteoFrance/Cross.
I'd be curious to see what were non-local gribs predicting.
