Came across this vid. Not sure if it was on this site or not but thought I would share it again. Renfrew seems this bad on a bad day but not even close:

Those hulls trying to plane is down right squirrly..

I can picture what the guy holding the wheel was doing.
 
Never fished PR.
Would say this is more like it? Looks do-able in smaller craft.
Still nuts I say

Other than the big rollers that one doesn't look bad at all... 'course now if something screws up... that's a whole different story.

Been in that pretty much coming into Sooke harbour on a hard ebb.... those waves don't move so you have to plow through to get home and they stand up real nice on the SW.

The waves in the last video seem to collapse before they curl....just have to have the timing right and keep up your speed. Like Lippy says not bad unless you loose power or steering right in the middle of where they break.
