it WAS tiring) made the suite of OBS measurements possible. Thanks also go 

 to B. Dally (FIT), K. Scott (University of California at Santa Cruz), and 

 C. Church (Naval Postgraduate School) who helped out at crucial moments. 

 The support of the WRL and the U.S. Army Engineer Waterways Experiment 

 Station CERC staff during the long summer is most appreciated. Post-pro- 

 cessing of the data was enhanced by the efforts of M. Muddarm (Oregon State 

 University). Special thanks to Nick Kraus (CERC) for conceiving and 

 sponsoring the SUPERTANK project and for his continuing enthusiasm and 

 support of surf zone research.
