Maybe it's because the long swells in the Pacific are a little easier to handle than the steep chop we tend to get in the Atlantic, especially if the wind is blowing against the gulf stream! Not that the Pacific can't get rough, but I suspect that percentage-wise, the east coast tends to see rougher seas. It does looks well protected for that cold water spray!
