    Missing GPS Seahorse (46 hp)

    Kia ora team.

    So my boss had his kontiki get busted off on Sat around 1:30pm off the beach next to Motiti Rd in Papamoa.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    It has his name "J. Dawson" on the inside of the hatch and I have his serial number here to verify with the finder (fingers crossed).

    Any information would be appreciated.

    Cheers.

    No doubt someone in a boat will pick it up to be gone for ever.
    Iv heard of a guy that will go retrieve them for $50. In his kayak.
    Wish I knew more, could come in handy.

    We lost the kids kite at Pukehina tonight, kid let it go and away it went, the handle created enough drag to keep tension on, it flew out of site heading towards White island. Can you keep an eye out for that too? Had a dragon on it

    Sad to say there are some assholes around this area that steal torpedos.Heard of 1 out Waihi beach ,guy had his new seahorse taken while it was running out.Cunt came along in a boat & grabbed it @400m out ,cut off ,thrown on board & shot threw.In daylight too ,mind I saw 1 got run over by a boat then sank ,weather deliberate or not .Guy was watching it with bino's when it got hit,now ya see it now ya don't .

    That has most definitely crossed his mind. No news yet but fingers crossed.
