A modified stretched linear wave theory is proposed. Linear theories provide greater facility in the execution of certain mathematical operations than nonlinear theories. The entire measured sea surface data can be analyzed without the need to consider only one extreme wave. A new mathematical stretching factor similar to that used by Wheeler is introduced. The stretched theory is compared with other approaches.
