Maybe it's also worth moving your linksys to the beach with a directional antenna 
and connecting another directional antenna to your pc at home. Thus you stay mobile 
at the beach (even if the notebook is not in the ray - it is close to the transmitter anyway) and
have a good long link.

P.S. Anyways, it's the radio - noone can guarantee anything before you try.
