WHO is looking for a missing kiteboarder? Is it a local search here in St. Pete?

I don't know if this is the same guy or not but there was a guy missing that made it in to a friends house and did not contact his wife right away. She had called the CG and they were searching for him. The CG reportedly spent over $100k looking for this guy.
