Default Repel Boarders!


From: ikitesurf

Not quite sure what happened here but it may have involved a newbie practicing too close to the hobie.

Amazing photo, it reminds me of a story I heard about five years ago. Back in the bad old days of "don't need kite leashes" a guy lost his kite down in the Caribbean. The wind must have been honking as the kite flew along until the bar caught the cross trees of a sailboat, something close to 30 ft., heeled it over and reportedly sunk it. Whoops.
