Missing Naish Glbal M windsurf board in Georgia Strait
My Naish Global M windsurf board became detached from my rig in the break at Columbia Beach today. I tried in vain to retrieve it down the beach, but the current and wind pushed it further north and out to sea. Discretion is the better part of valour, so I gave up and swam back in after 30 min of going after it. Coast guard has been told the rider is safe.
If you find it I would be grateful for its return.
Picture of the same board below.
Thanks.

Board will travel faster without rig.hope you get it back.!!!plus glad you were close to shore.
I'm sorry to hear about your lost board. I was just admiring it on your truck rack a couple days ago while you were out foiling. Beautifiul carbon/kevlar weave showing up under the blue tint epoxy. So sad. Hope it washes up on a sandy beach and is returned.
I'm glad you are safe on shore. Fortunately it happened on the inside and not the outside making for a safe water exit for you!

Board
I was just thinking that without the rig the board would go fast, as stated, and likely would take a pretty straight downwind course. I wonder if a Google Earth search with a wind direction might indicate a probable location. Hopefully, you get it back, looks nice.
