0116-8

I went to the beach at sunup to look for my board.  No sign of it.  On the way out to the car I started talking with a local fisherman.  He said that he knew the wind and currents very well and as we were talking he started looking around with his binoculars.  In a couple of minutes, he had found the board floating upside down about 300 yards off shore.  A surfer was kind enough to paddle out and get it.

It seems that if you are a kiter here, you are on your own as far as the rest of the gang is concerned.  I body dragged around for probably 15 minutes and nobody ever came over to see if I could use any help.

Hiked the Iao valley, watched surfers at Hookipa and paragliders nearby. Light winds today.
