Had to ditch my kite and board last night at Yorkey's Knob.

If anyone comes across them on the beach I'd absolutely love to get them back.

I lost a:
- 12M Orange and white Cabrinha Switchblade 3
- Green Cabrinha Prodigy Board

I'd only got three months wear out of them so I'd happily offer a reward.

Get in touch with me on 0417 560 459 or through the forum

Thanks a million

Bugger mtilleard, sorry to hear that.

In the past, gear will normally turn up at Pt Douglas, have even heard of gear turning up at Useless Loop north of Cooktown. I'd be letting anyone you know up at Port to keep an eye out, as it will turn up.

Is there a good story to go along with the ditching? Or is all just bad?

Ant and Rob from Australian Kitesurfaris will be north of Cooktown next week, I'm sure they'll keep an eye out.
There was a yacht washed up on the beach the other day........ perhaps a kite and board next week if you're lucky.

Good luck
