Lost: Kitemare in Barbados!

Postby Bluecrewmark » Thu Apr 20, 2017 1:09 am

Alien Air board and LIFT Foil lost at sea after a Kitemare. I launched at Silver Sands kite beach, self rescued into Frieghts beach and Lighthouse. For awhile, I felt like Tom Hanks in Castaway.

Strong westerly current. Unlikely it drifted ashore on the south side of Barbados; beach kids comb the beaches all the time and collect 'finders fees' for lost gear. Probably adrift in the Caribbean.
