Hey Guys, mate of mine (he’s not on Seabreeze, non-kiter) tells me he went to help out a kiter who looked like he was in trouble last Tuesday evening (24 Feb). Was around 7:00pm off Collaroy / Narrabeen (NSW), in a southerly, saw an orange kite in the water struggling to relaunch maybe 1km out, there was another kite in the area not able to help. So he gets in to his paddle ski and tows out his SUP to help the kiter in trouble. But by now it is dark and there’s plenty of swell and by the time he gets out there he can’t find the kiter. And to round things off his SUP became detached from the ski and it’s so dark he can’t find the SUP. So he wants to know if the kiter was OK and has anyone found his SUP. Was a silver/orange JP Pro Surf 8.5ft. Any help or tips in trying to find the board. Wind was blowing a southerly at the time so board will probably have gone north. Would be great to help him out as he has helped out other kiters in the past. Cheers, Richard
I'm a local and know heaps of kiters at narra and fishermans i will ask around . And tell your mate he's a legend for going out to give a hand and I hope this doesn't stop him from doing it again !!
Hope your board gets home !
