I lost my windsurfing rig (North Duke blue/white, mast and boom) SUI-75, yesterday 13. Feb. in the Caloundra surf.
If you find it, please kindly send me a message on 04 783 111 59.
Thanks Adrian

Hi all,
To be a little more specific, Adrian lost his rig on the Caloundra bar, he was out at happies and as it was his first time there is a bit unfamiliar with place names etc..
His rig was last seen getting dragged out through the surf line in the 10kts or so of runout tide sat afternoon.
If anyone knows any of the clubbies at kings or bulcock it would be greatly appreciated if you could ask around.
Adrian is an elderly chap (not too old to be windsurfing by any means though) and a true gentleman at that. He received potentially the biggest scare of his life sat afternoon, if his rig was to be found it would surely aid in his getting back on the horse so to speak.
Cheers

Hi everybody
Thanks AUS116 for the details. You forgot to mention that you were the one pulling me in with your kite, for which I am very thankful.
I am afraid meanwhile all components have filled up with water and sunk
The most valuable piece is the black carbon boom, 180-230 (AL 360) which I hope someone will find.
Thanks Adrian, SUI-75

Dear all
The above rig has run aground and we collected it. Thanks to everyone involved.
So no more hazard in the sea.
Hang loose guys.
