whitecap

A strong wind created whitecaps, while waves breaking against rocks occasionally sprayed us.

Bluebird summer mornings can morph into afternoon thunderstorms, and a calm lake can quickly develop whitecaps during the spring, summer, and fall months.

But the shore was protected by a double line of reefs, so close in that the channel between did not show a whitecap.

In a wave without a whitecap the water returns to practically the original point after completing a circle beneath the surface.

A big whitecap broke just beyond, washing over the barge and leaving the Alma half swamped.

It was a calm, clear day without even a single whitecap to mar the blue perfection of the sea.

And d'ye think I didn't see Mr. Whitecap going down, afore ye thought o' a row yerself?
