add a yellow beacon.

Thanks again for you help that day.

Yeah, that is why I ended up splurging to buy the wakestyle Mako (134) when I already had the longer Mako (150). Those boards rock! And props to Bayflite for getting them for me from Ocean Rodeo!!!

Gotta thank you too Gary...and also Paul Lum for the WAY you lost both of your boards that day...

I had equipment failure when I broke my Chicken Loop and my BRAND NEW 16M Slingshot Octane was off to the races, tumbling downwind in the Gulf of Mexico on a VERY rough day (I was riding suicide). Gary and Paul BOTH came to make sure I was okay, then BOLTED for my kite to try and save it. They both lost their boards in the rough surf as they tried to recover my lost kite. PROPS to you both for trying to help a bro in need!!! That, to me was the definition of selflessness...
