Lost my kite after an amazing Anzac Day sunset session from beach 3 @ Woodmans Point. Could have been found anywhere from South Beach to Coogee????

After a 3hour mission in the dark walking and scouring the beach from Coogee back to to the cement factory, no joy. Tried again @ first light this morning from South beach back to Coogee but still no luck. Sea rescue was called so hoping for that call to say all is well. Have left my details in the local kite shops and emergency services are clued in aswell. So if anyone has any info, please please please can you get in touch . it has some very distinct repairs so ID-ing is no prob.. thank you

2008 Airush Flow 7m - RED with bar and lines trailing (prob in a mess by now)

For those who want details......
Story goes like this.... Came in to do my thing when the quick release must have got knocked and the leash failed so when I hooked back in, my kite just went flying off into the distance.......... What and aweful gut wrenching feeling ..........sigh!!!!!!

Friends came to the rescue and I started swimming my little heart out, but lines were getting in the way and I know all too well your own safety is more important than the kite your trying to save kite. For a while I though all was well when I saw my kite getting dragged back to shore, until the wind dropped and kites had to be bailed on.Then the rescue mission began. Thanks again Chrissy and Nick for joining me on the romantic moonlight walk in search, I reallly appreciate it sooooo much.
