Surfers, Marin Headlands

I'd like to crop this to focus more on the surfers, any advice will be appreciated.
It looks to me like you might have run into some processing difficulties here. Can you enlighten us on your process?
 
details:

Zone VI 4x5
Schneider G-Claron 240mm
T-Max 100 @ 100 or 125 ISo

Rodinal 1:50 for 12 minutes i think.
really sloppy developing.. if you can imagine a fat guy drinking rum and coke and eating a greasy cheesburger while developing negs in toilet water... thats me.

notes: it was a windy day and the saltwater was spraying quite a bit. I had to use a cokin filter on the lens to focus with and then pulled it off just before exposure. When i got home, everything was covered with salt. blech.
 
I think the real problem with this image is the beach is too dark.. even when i crop part of it, it is still too prominent. I will try dodging it and give a little more exposure to the rest of the image and see how it looks.
