HI All,

Looking for one lost Shinn Monk Gold digger Twintip, last seen after a crash off pinaroo around sunset Monday the 3rd April.

Name and Phone number is on bottom of board, and I can verify serial number for anyone who finds it.

I can't begin to express how grateful I will be to anyone who finds it, needless to say a reward in beer will be paid.

Thanks All for keeping an eye out.

I feel your pain
watching a shinn board drift away is like watching someone dating your ex girlfriend

You never can trust a gold-digger.

Yep, and it's even worse when you weren't the one riding it - but had lent it to a mate to try. Then it has the double effect of feeling bad for them as well as yourself.

the beach inspectors were speaking to kiters at Brighton yesterday afternoon (4/4) because a member of the public had found a board and reported a missing kiter.
could be worth following up.

Thanks Kitefan, I've put a call into them. Fingers crossed.

Board was found about 12 K's out to sea, off Yanchep, about 50 k's north of where it was lost.

Moral of the story, marke sure your name and number is on all your gear. And buy beer for people who find your gear and do the right thing and call.

Can't even begin to describe the relief, love my Monk.
