Lost a board there a few years ago. A fisherman found it on Trial Island. Maybe look there.
Its all about the adventure and stoke!

check cops, "found" columns in the local free News and Used Vic or Craigslist
of all things I think Kiteboards require the full info, Protection of Privacy be damned.....

They have kites, but the bank account may not be too happy about a new kite. Wind is dieing for the rest of the week while the waves build! Time for some surfing!
